First, a quick THANKS to all who responded to my question about discount
brokers.  Your insights, thoughts and opinion have been very useful.

I get IBD by mail so I usually get to read it the next evening following
publication day.  In (I believe it was) Wednesday's Investor Corner, the issue
of high ROE and exceptional returns was discussed.  I am brand new to the ideas
of CANSLIM and have absolutely no experience in its application to draw upon.
That given, of the ten stocks listed, which of them were CANSLIM buy candidates
within the last year and when?  It is really neat to look back and say, 'All
these stocks had great bu-fu numbers and see how well they have performed.'
When and how could I have picked those stocks from a larger list and then run
with them?  Of the stocks listed, how many of them would have driven me out
because of various sell rules or suggestions?  Also and finally, ten stocks had
great one year performance.  What I don't know is how many other stocks also
satisfied the screen criteria and were not included on that list?

I have looked at the charts for the above mentioned stocks.  There were lots of
up and downs.  The major correction in nearly all cases was, of course, 9/11.
That aside, there was still a lot of rough going.

Just a few thoughts and questions to stir the pot a little.

All the best and happy hunting.

Dave Bigham
