I certainly did not mean Katherine any disrespect. I thought it was a
harmless question, but I guess I was wrong.
I apologize.

Morning, Tom. It was a funny thing admitting those feelings to the list as I
don't think I had even admitted it to myself in quite those words. But the
truth is, I'll go out of my way to help absolutely anybody, share what I
know so that others can become better investors, and ask plenty of questions
and listen in order to learn from others and become a better investor
myself. But by golly....when it comes to my money and the issue of
privacy....I look at it very differently. There are only of couple of things
I *won't* do....discuss specifics on performance, tell people what stocks
I'm looking to buy/short, or reveal the positions I'm currently in. Short
list, but that's just part of the guidelines I've set. I can't say I'm all
that thrilled about the list turning into some big "collective mining
effort," but Duke's a sport for bringing it up and I admire his in-your-face
attitude about getting the effort underway as there *are* list members who
will benefit. Have a great day,Katherine

Katherine, I am quite willing to admit the same thing, I put a huge amount
of work into my investing, and intend that I benefit from it. My style is
strictly my own, and I have found that since I gave up handling retail
clients that I make far better decisions for myself without the
responsibility for others. I am sure many members must have thought I was
insane a few weeks ago when I mentioned that I not only fully invested my
cash acct, but went to the full margin limits as well. Despite a very dismal
"M" since then, I am up over 13% (and yeah, for the doubters I can prove it)
and could once again cash out and sit in a money market for the rest of the
year. But I don't expect to do that, since I prefer to be invested than in
cash. Profits can be made on the long side even in a poor market, even if
shorting, with its higher risks, may be easier. So long as I continue to
enjoy the challenge, and need to earn extra money, and it continues to work
for me, I will pursue my style of investing but not share my stock picks.

Hi Duke, I believe that what you are suggesting is something that already
goes on quite frequently on the list. That is, people share their read on a
stock from both fundamental and technical perspectives. These "examples" as
you call them are instructive and I agree with you on that count. I have 3
binders full of "lessons" that I've acquired over the years from others,
from my own observations/successes/failures, from the IBD, from 2 of the
advanced IBD seminars and from this list. But I still won't submit a stock
and say "you should buy this because xyz." While I am looking to enter a
trade or while I am in the trade I really don't want to attract *more* eyes
to the stock. I would prefer that we accomplish what you are suggesting by
doing post analysis instead. And honestly, why should I submit the
conclusions of all my hard work in stock selection so that others
(especially non-contributors) can make money? I'll gladly share knowledge
and take on a debate so as to learn something, but I won't share stock
picks. I'm sure there are others who feel the same but are less willing to
admit it publicly. Katherine

Katherine:I understand TOTALLY your opinion; I joined this list for many of
the same reasons you did. But...your rationale for joining this list only
SUPPORTS my concept. What better way to become adept and expand your
horizons regarding CANSLIM than with real life, actual examples, I.e., our
LIMITED submissions of potential CANSLIM stocks (not "stock picks") for the
Mother List? Have you been to a CANSLIM seminar? I don't know about you,
but 90% of my takeaway is in the form of actual charts illustrating real
life situations with notes as to the discussions. I see a lot of that in
the Mother list: Forcing "members" to justify their picks before they make
this list has immense educational potential. In other words, don't tell us
you think this is a good pick....tell us WHY!So, my intent is NOT to have
the concept become a list of stock picks. Rather, a list of stocks that
students of CANSLIM are dxxn near willing to fight for; stocks they don't
want to see removed from the list for this reason or that; stocks they (and
all others) can potentially make money on. My wording about "CANSLIM this
and CANSLIM that" was poorly chosen. I didn't mean to imply boredom. But
if all that CANSLIM this and CANSLIM that is backed up by actual real life,
this is my money examples....won't it mean more?(Not to beat a dead horse,
but did you see in the Sunday WSJ that Southwest Airlines is going to change
their system. No more colored boarding cards. Even they are looking at the
world a bit differently.)Debate on!Duke

Hi Duke, I've been mulling over your "mother of all lists" idea all day. I
understand your desire to share "collective wisdom" regarding stock picks,
but I don't agree with it, for the same reason you listed in your comment
(b). Even more so, however, when I was reviewing archives in many
communities in order to decide which list to join, one of the things I
looked for was a community that hadn't reduced discussion of CANSLIM down to
endless stock "picks" but instead a discussion of the underlying principles
that make CANSLIM tick; processes for finding and evaluating stocks;
clarifications of investing concepts; and practice in the interpretation of
technicals, fundamentals, market health and CANSLIM guidelines. While some
may argue that such discussion makes CANSLIM overly complex, I think this is
precisely what makes this a community that helps to build knowledgeable
CANSLIMers. In my mind, it is the exchange of ideas and viewpoints, not
stock picks, which creates value. Southwest Airlines has had many copycat
competitors over the years, attracted to the business by the notion that
following Southwest's "simple" approach to flying was easy and repeatable.
All of the early copycats' businesses failed because they did not understand
the most important part of Southwest's strategy, i.e., that many dedicated
people work exceptionally hard and utilize a complex systematic approach to
doing business that *appears* to be simple to the customers who fly with
them. Katherine ----- Original Message -----

Being new to this list, I'd like to share a few observations and proffer a
what-if.
a) Working through this market, tugging constantly with my buy checklist,
it helps to have company that's a) knowledgeable, b) successful (or
committed to striving for it), and c) CERTAINLY unbiased!
b) The debate herein over the merits of CANSLIM-this and/or CANSLIM-that is
unending (as it should be). The arguments haven't changed since the concept
was developed. NO matter how hard we try to stay between the lines, we each
have our own variation(s), don't we?
c) It seems we're all watch-listing and waiting, ever confident the
market's going to eventually break out ONLY when it's ready to. I agree with
Katherine, that we can certainly "mine" some winners these days. I've got
two that are showing promise, buy a dozen more I've been "whipsawed" out of.
(One thing WON taught me is not to "hide" from my blunders, rather study and
learn from them. I still hate doing that!)
I think you'll all agree, trying to unearth the one stock in four that
doesn't shake us out unmercifully in this market we're in is not fun. So
here's a what if from the glistening Gulf shores of Anna Maria Island: Is
it conceivable we might better devote our time to channeling our collective
energies toward building "all-star" watch list? One that, when the M does
turn, we can be ready in the wings?
Forgive me if the thought isn't totally developed yet (or original to this
group), but what if...those interested "sign up" to each "nominate" one,
two, or three personal-favorite watch stocks. Ones you'd buy for your own
mother! (The "mother" of all lists???) And we take that list, follow its
contents' progress together and, on-going, "debate" the merits of each
"nomination," old or new.
Just today we got lists from Tim and John; I wonder which three from each
list they'd nominate for the Mother List?
IMHO, this: a) would help us expand and refine our own lists; b) steepen our
CANSLIM learning curves via the debates; c) benefit all of us when the
tide(s) turn; and c), would be a source for a little fun (while we wait for
M)!
If there's enough interest, I'll be glad to suggest a nomination checklist
which we can improvise as we go along, etc, etc, etc. So what do you think?
A final note: I'm out of town until Thursday, but will be monitoring as
best I can from my remote hotmail account, iffy at best. Worst case
scenario, I'll compile a wrap-up of your input by week's end.
Duke

<DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial"><B>Subject:</B> [CANSLIM] Date:
Sun, 24 Feb 2002 15:11:27 -0500</DIV> Being new to this
list, I'd like to share a few observations and proffer a
<BR>what-if.
<P>a) Working through this market, tugging constantly with
my buy checklist, <BR>it helps to have company that's a)
knowledgeable, b) successful (or <BR>committed to striving for
it), and c) CERTAINLY unbiased!
<P>b) The debate herein over the merits of CANSLIM-this
and/or CANSLIM-that is <BR>unending (as it should be). The
arguments haven't changed since the concept <BR>was
developed. NO matter how hard we try to stay between the
lines, we each <BR>have our own variation(s), don't we?
<P>c) It seems we're all watch-listing and waiting, ever
confident the <BR>market's going to eventually break out ONLY
when it's ready to. I agree with <BR>Katherine, that we can
certainly "mine" some winners these days. I've got <BR>two
that are showing promise, buy a dozen more I've been "whipsawed"
out of. <BR>(One thing WON taught me is not to "hide" from my
blunders, rather study and <BR>learn from them. I still
hate doing that!)
<P>I think you'll all agree, trying to unearth the one stock in
four that <BR>doesn't shake us out unmercifully in this market
we're in is not fun. So <BR>here's a what if from
the glistening Gulf shores of Anna Maria Island: Is <BR>it
conceivable we might better devote our time to channeling our
collective <BR>energies toward building "all-star" watch
list? One that, when the M does <BR>turn, we can be ready
in the wings?
<P>Forgive me if the thought isn't totally developed yet (or
original to this <BR>group), but what if...those interested
"sign up" to each "nominate" one, <BR>two, or three
personal-favorite watch stocks. Ones you'd buy for your
own <BR>mother! (The "mother" of all lists???) And
we take that list, follow its <BR>contents' progress together
and, on-going, "debate" the merits of each <BR>"nomination," old
or new.
<P>Just today we got lists from Tim and John; I wonder
which three from each <BR>list they'd nominate for the Mother
List?
<P>IMHO, this: a) would help us expand and refine our own lists;
b) steepen our <BR>CANSLIM learning curves via the debates; c)
benefit all of us when the <BR>tide(s) turn; and c), would be a
source for a little fun (while we wait for <BR>M)!
<P>If there's enough interest, I'll be glad to suggest a
nomination checklist <BR>which we can improvise as we go along,
etc, etc, etc. So what do you think?
<P>A final note: I'm out of town until Thursday, but will
be monitoring as <BR>best I can from my remote hotmail account,
iffy at best. Worst case <BR>scenario, I'll compile a
wrap-up of your input by week's end.
