Because I see surprisingly little bearishness in the list. Or maybe I can't read sentiment?< I'm on record as bearish since about two weeks ago. I'm even more so after the "bloodbath" last week. This, however doesn't mean the market will continue to go down. As WON says, many people have lost a fortune trying to argue with the market. But I think the market has been stalling and churning up until last week's increased volume selling. Also, I've lost $ on my last 3 purchases, and the previous leaders are no longer leading. Combined with [perhaps already priced in] interest rate hikes, a Friday spike up in gold, and historically high market multiples and high bullish sentiment, I remain quite nervous at least short term. I've been 100% cash (excluding mutual funds per WON's suggestion to never sell mutuals) for over a week, and I hope to keep disciplined enough to stay in cash until (what the numbers seem to be saying is) the imminent[?] market downturn is over. But then again, I could be completely wrong... - - ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 30 Jan 2000 21:30:42 -0800 From: "Bill Triffet" Subject: Re: [CANSLIM] Stocks Tim, > P.S.

By Greg Kuhn January 31, 2000 11:37 PM EST http://www.tradingmarkets.com/.site/stocks/commentary/gkaginsights/01302000- 3978.cfm One note of interest: Although Friday's sharp decline came on lighter volume than the day before, don't be lulled into thinking that a light-volume decline is necessarily positive. I've seen the onset of many market corrections do this only to see volume increase significantly as the correction grew deeper. For those relatively new to technical analysis, light-volume declines are not an absolute positive. Although it takes volume, or heavy demand, to push stocks higher, stocks can fall of their own weight without a lot of selling pressure - just a lack of buying interest to support bids. Conversely, heavy volume several days, or weeks, into a decline can be positive as it sometimes signals capitulation. But we'll leave that concept for another time. - -- Johan - - ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 31 Jan 2000 20:40:46 +0100 From: Johan Van Houtven Subject: [CANSLIM] 300-400% profit per year: GUARANTEED!

I've been a lurker and ocassional poster since 1997, I still consider myself a beginner, but heh who isn't? I'll reintroduce myself since alot of you probably weren't here 3 year ago. My name is Christopher, I'm a co-op student in elec. engineering at the universtiy of waterloo in Canada. I do only tech stocks, because that's what I know and understand, I also don't restrict myself to canslim principles,which is one of the reasons I tend to not post, but I think what Johan has proposed would be very beneficial. Being in co-op i go back and forth between school and work. So far I've worked for qualcomm, nortel, research in motion and my own company, guess what? all stellar stocks, and I've owned them all :-). Myself and my friends have together worked for hundreds of tech companies in the states and canada (cndx, aka silicon north or nasdaq north is up 22% ytd, go Canada go). Anyway heres what I hold and a blurb why I like em qcom (sold before christmas, back in at 110, 124 and 125, probably not going to accumulate any more. They do CDMA, they do it better then anyone, they beat deadlines, they have amazing, A1, brilliant people there, great management, etc. etc. etc. Most impressive company I've worked for, if I ever work for someone full time it might very well be them ) armhy (mentioned this earlier, TOM didn't like it due to eps (not saying anything against your opinion Tom, after 3 years of lurking I have a great deal of respect for it), well today they announced 1999 earnings, up over 200% ? exactly what i was saying, their chips are in EVERYTHING, nokia, ericsson, qualcomm, mp3 players, bluetooth, TI, you name it thier asic is probably based around an arm core, boughth in at 30 in the summer sold before christmas. My number one holding; I've been accumulating since it started to fall, bought alot durning that transmeta hoopla (nonsense if you ask me). Anway, 5-1 split coming, I'm long on arm. rimm (my current employer, they kick but, palm 7 sorry guys, motorla page writter ? doesn't compare. Currently accumulating ) If these guys were american there exposure would have pushed the share price to much higher levels, I believe Tim mentioned these guys in a post, right after the 30% jump :-). Looking at making them my second largest holding. there are others of course but if I read what johan was saying these are to be considered my main plays, the companies I believe in, through the dips and downgrades (thanks goldman sachs for pushing armhy to insane levels so I could buy cheap :-) jana systems might be worth looking into, they're on the tse, excellent company, great growth, great product. I think they're actually making money too ?? Unreal eh? again these may be non-canslim plays, but I do what I know and that's tech. back to lurking...................

Let me come to the most important part now:

I would like to know what stocks you are holding *now*, that you feel have
the potential   to become big time winners in the comming months.

The ones that you expect to be your core holdings throughout the year and

I am holding ADIC. This was one of the stocks that went from $4 to $60 in the year and it was a contender with QCOM as stocks that have appreciated the most in the year. ADIC is in direct competition with EMC and STK and have been doing extremely good as far as earnings are concerned. They sink a lot of money in R&D and that bodes very well for a company. It is in the hot Storage area network industry and has products that can be used by most of the .com companies. I also like NTAP. I think both of thes have more potential than EMC.

I now use > Pankin method for trading Fidelity Select Portfolios. BTW > what do you currently hold and what is your outlook? Rolatzi, Well, I did the unthinkable and sold all my Selects, about 40% of my portfolio, and put the proceeds into PBHEX, PBTCX, BFOCX, and UOPIX. I forfeited all the 3% monies, because of the performance of the above named funds, plus another fifteen that I now hold in my "universe". I still use Pankin for fund selection, and it works very well with all funds. While I still consider the Selects as fine trading vehicles, I couldn't overlook the triple digit returns(some with 200%+ yearly returns) of my new universe. Whether they will continue their stellar performance remains to be seen. In any case, I still have the Rydex Selects as alternatives to Fidelity's. > If you are long, do you have a stop in mind? I don't use stops, since Pankin will theoretically keep me in the best funds at all times, but I do sell my weaker performers if the market appears suspect. As an example, I left for a five day stay in Las Vegas Sunday a week ago, and I sold BFOCX and UOPIX that morning. I didn't like the way UOPIX was performing vis-a'-vis the NASDAQ, and both the DOW and S&P 500 had accumulated three days of distribution. While I'm an advocate of remaining 100% invested, I am personally more comfortable with 50% during times of market turmoil. I managed an 89% total portfolio return last year, which was my best ever. I can thank Pankin and all those beautiful tech funds for that. >You can reply > privately if you think it is too much off topic. Well, this is clearly not CANSLIM, but there are list members who hold both individual stocks and funds and I thought that they would perhaps be interested. But you're right.

I don't get it, Johan. Why should I "like" any stock? Why should I care if it's a leader for the next week or the next century? I buy what I think I can make money on and my stops take me out when I am no longer making money. I'm out of all but 2 stocks and the venerable MCD today. I liked most of them until last week. Then my stops started telling me that they were losers. (I had success buying the morning after the "V" last time so if the market opens up I'll probably do the same thing tomorrow AM (a major departure from CANSLIM, BTW!)). To answer your question I will be holding MCD as long as my wife is working for the regional HQ. It's stock & options and the stock is not sellable unless she quits, and the options are not needed by us until the kids go to school. So that's my stock for the next year (10 years? 20?).

I won't claim I'm going to hold these for sure, but I am still 100% invested at this point. I have four stocks. I like three of these as leaders in strong groups, QLGC, SEBL, ETEK (to get JDSU). I just got into ETEK and SEBL over the last week or two, so I'm trying to keep my head above the -8% level. I survived the day on both (since I only use closing numbers, they were down significantly mid-day). I also own APEX, a leader in a somewhat weaker group (rank=28 I think). The stock has behaved well since I purchased it, but I will be a little quicker on the trigger on this one. I am holding while it stays above it's 13 day EMA, and giving it a little room for bounces for a day or two. It closed right at the 13 day today.
