Mike, I don't subscribe to IBD, but I believe it shows some information =
on the performance of funds, and some of their holdings, so you can see =
if a stock is held by top performing funds. I am sure others can explain =
more fully. I don't apply this principle of CANSLIM in my personal =
investing, as I like to find a stock before the big boys do, and you =
don't get many funds owning the small stocks I buy.

and there's the rub. Where is quality defined, how is it measured and =
what is above average? Rhetorical question, because I don't think =
there's an answer, But, I've been wrong before and I expect the =
redoubtable Katherine or Tom will prove me so again :-)

believe I was the one who pontificated that IBD/DGO recommends no more =
than 25% mutual fund ownership, because otherwise there would be =
inadequate institutional capacity left to buy the stock when it started =
to move. In my opinion they use mutual funds because they leave a paper =
trail, and the quality of investment skill can be measured. Other =
institutions, for example life insurance companies, are more difficult =

  For most public companies, institutions own most of the outstanding =
float, maybe 80% to 90% (according to Yahoo). Since the bulk of the =
ownership cannot be evaluated as respects investment skill and success, =

recommends mutual fund sponsorship, but for growth stocks, he likes to =
see the percentage of ownership at less than 25%, and the quality of =
mutual fund ownership, above average.=20

  But then, what do I know?=20
