- --0-2118369661-1042138769=:78334 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Jans, Thanks for your response. I admit I didn't look very closely at the fundamentals myself because I rely on IBD to do that for me. Shame on me. :) If NBTY continues in an uptrend, my thinking is that it will pull IFF with it. My plan would be to get in at the buy point and ride up for the short term as long as I don't get any negative signals and as long as NBTY stays strong. Alternatively, if I decide on NBTY it appears that I will have to wait for a pullback to find a buy point, right?

However, the fundamentals don't look that great (eg, earnings, debt). Also, I generally like management to own a greater percent of the stock than do funds. But this is why I would go more towards NBTY (besides the fundamentals and superior chart appearance of NBTY). NBTY is a manf. and distributer of nutrients. In my opinion, this is an up-and-coming baby boom field. Baby-Boomers (besides wanting to live longer) are going to want to be healthy as they live longer. NBTY fills that demand. IFF (cosmetics) provides only a bandaid for that which (I believe) baby-boomers will be avid: Eternal Youth (or at least as eternal as possible). I'd wait for the market to get better (WON's stats say that over 75% of stocks fall during a bear; now we may not be in a bear, but that doesn't mean we're in a bull. The market could just fluctuate in a tight range for weeks or months just below the 200 DMA resistance.) Moreover, as I said, I'd focus more on NBTY than IFF. jans In a message dated 1/9/2003 6:47:43 AM Eastern Standard Time, uptickchick2003@yahoo.com writes: << I was checking out NBTY this morning on IBD and noticed that a related company IFF, has formed a perfect cup and may be forming a handle now.
