Hi All,

I've uploaded the latest CANSLIM Hunting list to:

http://<= SPAN=20 class=3D906271822-11012003>cwhcharts.com/katherine/CANSLIMHunting<= SPAN=20 class=3D906271822-11012003>011003.xls ( quite slow to load)

http://<= SPAN=20 class=3D906271822-11012003>cwhcharts.com/katherine/CANSLIMHunting<= SPAN=20 class=3D906271822-11012003>011003.zip=20 ( a zipped version for download)

*Please note that these spreadsheets were prepared with Excel 2000 = for=20 Windows. If you have older versions of Excel or use a Mac version, you = will not=20 be able to view them properly. If you do not have Excel, see http://= office.microsoft.com/downloads/2000/xlviewer.aspx for=20 a free viewer.

In order to make it to the list, the stock had to have a forward = growth=20 rate of at least 15%, Price at least 6, Avg Daily Vol at least 30K, RS = at least=20 60, no more than 15% below the 50 day SMA, and at or above the 200 day = SMA. This=20 is what I consider to be "bare bones" requirements for CANSLIM quality = stocks.=20 (Note that if you follow stricter CANSLIM guidelines, you can use the = autofilter=20 feature in each column and view only Price>=3D$12 (or 15) and=20 AvgVol>=3D100000.) Other information included is industry name = (slightly=20 different than DGO's names, but close), price, avg vol, and links = to=20 graphs and due diligence sites on the internet. I've also added a couple = of special = columns this month which show the relative=20 outperformance of each = stock. You'll=20 find a column for the % change in = price=20 since the market low 10/10/02 and another column which shows the = direction of=20 the RS Line since the 10/10 market low. If the RS Line (RS = compared to=20 S&P500) has been going up since that date (indicating outperformance = relative to the market), it is indicated with a "+". Be sure to note that there are 4 = sheets in the=20 workbook. The first sheet has the listed stocks;=20 others include a list of stocks dropped from the list, a summary = of=20 stocks by sector, and a sheet with misc. links for free info on the = web.

If you'd like to look at last month's hunting list, you will find = it=20 at:

http= ://www.cwhcharts.com/katherine/CANSLIMHunt= ing122002.zip

This month there are a = substantial=20 511 names, up 35 names from the list I posted last=20 month. This month, 122 = names=20 fell from the list, but only = 146 names=20 are new and 365 names are=20 repeats. This is the best action = I've seen=20 in quite a while, as the number of stocks repeating from last month to = this has=20 risen substantially. In order to see a sustainable advance, we need to = see more=20 stocks becoming and then *staying* strong from one month to the next and = there's certainly some evidence of that in the new hunting list. = This is=20 particularly important given that the markets have been moving through a = correction (beginning 12/2) off the 10/10/02 market low. Recent = follow=20 fresh through days in all the major indices and the addition = of more and=20 more tech stocks are both good signs.

I thought there were some = interesting drops=20 from the list this month including WTW, a new issue that has been doing = very=20 well since going public. On 1/7 it fell below its 200 day MA, causing it = to drop=20 off the list. Guess the run up was in *anticipation* of all those New = Year's=20 resolutions, but if the price action is any indication of people's=20 stick-to-itiveness, I suppose they'll be dropping out of their new = weight loss=20 programs within the first couple of months this year! One item worth reviewing is the action in = stocks such=20 as this that have been very strong in the last year but are starting to = show=20 some wear and tear. Examples include APOL, COCO and JCOM (find these by=20 filtering for stocks where the RSL line has been decreasing since the = market=20 low, "-" in the last column). Strong stocks such as this have been = correcting=20 while the rest of the market has been moving up--something worth noting = in the=20 grand scheme of a fairly rotational market.

Happy Hunting,

Katherine
