  I frequently see the use of the term "fundies" on the list. I assumed =
that it meant mutual funds. Does it mean more than that?

  Thanx,

    I subscribe to DGO (Daily Graphs Online, a WON product) which =
condenses a lot of information into two pages of charts with fundies =
data.

    As a reminder to members, and since one member indicated the =
discount still is available, annual cost may still be possible to reduce =
from over $700 to the low $500 level by subscribing to a single book a =
month of the DG books. Worth investigating. And for those who have never =
tried DGO, taking the trial version is cheap for a brief test.

    Excellent points Tom...and you were correct that margins and insider =
selling were concerns.  So much that they were both addressed in the =
conference call.  Mgt indicated in the call that they were working on =
margins and that the insider selling were people selling options and =
reinvesting back into the company. =20

    If you'd be so kind, where do you look to get that info so quickly =
so that I can start looking for better candidates?

    Many thanks!!!  =20

      as a comment, one thing I always look at, which WON doesn't talk =
about, is the sequential sales and earnings. Most people tend to focus =
on year to year comparisons, which I also look at, but I place greater =
weight on sequential comparisons.

      When I look at this one, I see earnings for past 4 qtrs are up, =
down, up, down. However, sales are consistently up all four qtrs. That =
tells me they may be having a problem with profit margins that I would =
want to investigate.

      I also note that cash flow is lower than earnings, which should be =
investigated. Additionally, management owns 70%, so I would check and =
see if they have been selling, might explain part of the drop.

      Thanks Tom, glad to be aboard!!!  As I was telling Katherine, I =

        Welcome to the group,=20

        when did you buy it, what price, did you stop out of it or do =
you still have it

        how about why you bought it, and was it for short, intermediate =

        Hi Board,

        I'm a new "canslimer" and thought I was an IBD guru until I =
