      Good article on FREE REAL TIME.COM today. Compares what President =

stock right before they disclosed how much debt the company had been =

          Duke, aside from raising my upper price limit to $20 from $18 =
and market cap from $500 million to $650 million some months ago =
(partially because of greater buying power thanks to early profits), I =
have made little change in screening. I have been far less restrictive =
on RS on stocks I already hold so long as fundamentals are holding up to =
my expectations.

          I do think there is the potential for market improvement next =
week, noticed that the 10 day moving average for up / down volume had =
picked up on most indexes, even turned positive on some, so that is =
encouraging. Most stocks are so beaten down right now it will take time =
to see the same on the 10 day new highs / lows numbers.

          There are still corporate accounting problems coming out of =
the woodwork, just read an article on Halliburton (Dick Cheney was VP =
there in 2000), and more calls for SEC investigation of Bush and his =
Cabinet. Disclosure by the House that they believe the Board of =
Directors of Enron knew for several years of what was going on is also =
leading to more politically inspired calls for reforms, and =
investigations of Bush. So the politics, if not actual news, will keep =
this issue in the forefront for some time.

          As I mentioned yesterday or Friday, the rally on Friday was =
primarily a relief rally that there was no major terrorist attack over =
the holiday (and now thru the weekend). That certainly could inspire a =
day or two of frenzied buying, by value shoppers, by sidelined cash that =
wants to be in the market, and by the shorters having to cover. I have =
less confidence that it could lead to a sustained rally on fundamentals =
and economics, even tho that would be legitimate as I see these factors.

          Ok, wake up out there!! =20

          Could it be that things might possibly by some mere stretch of =
the imagination...start looking up?  Is it time to proceed with some =
early-on mining?

          To that end, I went back through my CAN SLIM Keepers =
folder...you know, where I put stuff my 50-something mind needs to be =
refreshed upon because it's meaningful, and I'm prone to forgetting.  =
(See anecdote at end of this message; if it rings a bell, so to speak, =
you need your own CAN SLIM Keepers Folder!).

          Katherine Malm is in the "from" line in my Keeper folder more =
than anyone else (wonder why?), so I'm using her as the catapult for my =
query.  At the same time, I'm asking others to chime in, PLEASE. =20

          On April 29, Katherine, you summarized your screening tactics =
in an email, subject: "How are you choosing your stocks."   To =
paraphrase:

          RS>=3D60
          Price>=3D200dma
          Price>=3D50 dma -15%
          A/D =3D  A, B, or C
          EPS Rating =3D>50
          Meeting or exceeding these criteria, you flip through the =
charts to see which are setting up, then proceed to additional scrutiny. =
 The following is quoting directly from your email:(hilite is mine):

          With respect to annual and quarterly growth, ROE, D/E, =
cashflow etc., again, I look at these things in total, knowing that =
accounting rules often obfuscate the "real" story. For that reason, I =
like to skim the recent SEC filings if a stock makes my short due =
diligence list, rather than eliminating stocks entirely just because ROE =
is 14.6 vs 15% for example.=20
          At the risk of interrupting Katherine's summer reading =
program, my question for the week:=20

          Now that the market has dipped this far, what screen changes, =
if any, are you contemplating to narrow down your selections? =20

          I've stated before that my feeling is the stocks that have not =
succumbed as much lately (RS above 90, for instance) will be huge =
winners; they are passing "obfuscated 'real' story" scrutiny. =20

          Or will they?  Are they more havens than performers, with the =
prospect of giving way to other types of issues destined to surface into =
the winners' pool?
