This is a multi-part message in MIME format. - ------=_NextPart_000_02D5_01C293A7.27F87110 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hi All, I've uploaded the latest CANSLIM Hunting list to: http://WallStreet-LLC.com/canslim/CANSLIMHunting112202.xls ( a bit slow = to load) http://WallStreet-LLC.com/canslim/CANSLIMHunting112202.zip ( a zipped = version for download) *Please note that these spreadsheets were prepared with Excel 2000 for = Windows. If you have older versions of Excel or use a Mac version, you = will not be able to view them properly. If you do not have Excel, see = http://office.microsoft.com/downloads/2000/xlviewer.aspx for a free = viewer. In order to make it to the list, the stock had to have a forward growth = rate of at least 15%, Price at least 6, Avg Daily Vol at least 30K, RS = at least 60, no more than 15% below the 50 day SMA, and at or above the = 200 day SMA. This is what I consider to be "bare bones" requirements for = CANSLIM quality stocks. (Note that if you follow stricter CANSLIM = guidelines, you can use the autofilter feature in each column and view = only Price>=3D$12 (or 15) and AvgVol>=3D100000.) Other information = included is industry name (slightly different than DGO's names, but = close enough!), price, avg vol, and links to graphs and due diligence = sites on the internet. This month I've also added links to Mike's and = (now my!) cwhcharts for each stock which displays U/D volume, RS Rank, = Comparative RS vs. SPX and more. I've also added a couple of additional = columns as an outgrowth of my recent discussion with Eric J regarding = relative outperformance of certain stocks and strength of potential and = current leader stocks. You'll find a column for the RS Line since the = 10/10 market low. If the RS Line (RS compared to S&P500) has been going = up since that date (indicating outperformance relative to the market), = it is indicated with a "+". I've also included a column to show the % = off the 52 week high for those that keep their eye focused on such = things. Also note that there are 4 sheets in the workbook, though this = is easy to overlook. The first sheet has the listed stocks, but others = include a list of stocks dropped from the list, a summary of stocks by = sector, and a sheet with misc. links for free info on the web. If you'd like to look at last month's hunting list, you will find it at: http://WallStreet-LLC.com/canslim/CANSLIMHunting101802.xls or http://WallStreet-LLC.com/canslim/CANSLIMHunting101802.zip This month there are 476 names, up a whopping 105 names from the list I = posted last month just after the FTD. This month, 125 names fell from = the list, 230 new names came on board and 246 names are repeats. Though = rotation on the list is still fairly severe, the large number of repeats = does show some marked improvement over what I've seen in the last year. = It's an encouraging sign that money seems to continue to flow out of = defensive names such as REITS, Mining and Healthcare (hospitals/HMO's) = and into growth areas such as Healthcare equipment/instruments and = Business Sevices. Of particular note this month is the high = representation of media stocks. As a sign of *economic* strength (though = not necessarily market strength), this is very important. 19 names show = on the list and represent both print and broadcast media. AOL also = announced recently that they see a strengthening demand for advertising. = This is an important sign, because media is typically one of the strong = sectors leading out of economic reversionary periods. As the market is a = discounting mechanism, this then bodes well. Other areas with good = representation are telecom (select cellular and equipment companies), = computer services and business services. I don't see it as particularly = troubling that more retailers don't show on the list. The consumer = stocks have dominated over the past 20 (or so) years and I don't think = it would be out of the question there would be a substantial secular = shift to capital goods and other quasi-cyclical sectors in the future. = Tech supports many industries and great growth stocks don't necessarily = have to come from consumer related businesses (though it is true many = growth companies do typically come from innovative retailers.) It's also = interesting to me that Biotech is well represented on this month's list = with 14 names. While this is a high-risk sector, it is encouraging to = see institutional money flow to it. Many believe biotech will be the = most important growth industry going forward. I am also not troubled by = the flow of money *out* of homebuilders and related stocks. Again, the = market is a discounting mechanism. That means that if money is flowing = out of this sector, the growth in housing, etc.will decline. People may = not be building new houses at a pace equal to the last 10-15 years in = the future, but it's a fallacy to conclude that the consumer will no = longer be healthy and spend money. The laborers and supporting = businesses will shift to other industries as a result in the same way = that they did when the oil industry collapsed in the early '80's. Take a = trip to Houston today and you'll find it a far different city than it = was at that time--still a lot of oil money, but a far more diverse group = of businesses than 20 years ago. With a follow-through day under our belts, decent (though certainly not = perfect, and still suspect) action in recent breakouts and a list of = hunting candidates composed of less defensive names and more fully = populated with innovative companies, it's an encouraging sign that we = may be in for an intermediate term rally of some consequence. It's still = a jungle out there....be sure to honor all your buy *and* sell rules!! One last note...I'm aware that there are many who will not use a list = stocks such as this (and rightfully so), but it's always difficult to = tell if the spreadsheet is useful to enough people on the CANSLIM list = to continue to spend the time it takes to prepare each month. As there = is no way to monitor the number of downloads, I'll need some individual = feedback to gauge the value to the list. Tom Worley has often expressed = the same sentiment from time to time given the amount of effort he puts = into his weekly Weekend Weeview, so I am following his lead to get a = pulse point.
