Katherine,

I don't know which to thank you for more--the list of stocks, the =
economic/sector discussion and lesson, or the tips for using Excel!!

Many thanks for all of the above. Your efforts are very much appreciated =
and extremely helpful to me (as are yours, Tom).

  Subject: [CANSLIM] CANSLIM Hunting List Updated 11/22/02


  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.

  Happy Hunting,
  Katherine
