Dear folks - I am a small independent investor in Dallas.  I've been
following the CANSLIM group for almost two years and have learned a
tremendous amount from those of you who have been persistently willing share
your input.

It's difficult to decide when it's time to say a few positive words of
appreciation to those of you who obviously understand so much more than I do
about individual investment strategies.  However, timid as my effort is, I
want to stress my appreciation for those of your who spend the time to share
your knowledge and experiences in helping the rest of us understand a little
more each day about personal investing.  Certainly Tom Worley and Katherine
Malm (among many others) deserve my sincere appreciation.

Thanks so much to all of you...

Bert Rodriguez

Tom Worley and Katherine Malm

  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>=$12 (or
15) and AvgVol>=100000.) 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
