Louetta's Lore

[Louetta]

Louetta,
Wasn't Carmine (shopping cart) Dean Vernon Wormer's wife ?

Faber College : "Knowledge is Good"

Carmine, methinks, was the name of the mayor, supposedly an Italian with mob connections ("If you mention extortion again I'll have your legs broken.") After the toga party when the Dean is on the phone, his drunken wife sprawled across his lap, he says to the person on the other end "Carmine, how can it be my fault?" Presumably that person is the mayor whose daughter has been "molested" at the party and who has just been delivered home. When the guy pushes the shopping cart up to the house with the girl in it there is a sign on the lawn saying whose house it is. I don't remember what the sign says but someone we know must live else else the sign would have no meaning.

... I would argue that it is the fundamental investors who in fact make market reversals...

It is the market that makes reversals. Fundamental investors are merely one portion of the market.

Rob,
Can't agree with that statement about the fundamental investor being the one's that make market reversals. Too many different areas of money and trading to make such a broad statement.

I agree ski. In fact, it might be argued that the smartest market "manipulators", with deep pockets, can "create" a technical pattern in a chart that is reaching or has reached a point of exhaustion or point of significant support or resistance....and I doubt that fundamental only investors are able to do that.

..if a stock has been in an extended downtrend, a person who relies solely on technical analysis will not buy it..

Not true. Targets are reached during weakness. Covering into weakness is a very sensible tactic of TA based traders. There doesn't have to be a reversal pattern in place to justify covering to take profits. It's the exhaustion of selling, the point of profit-taking covering, combined with fundamental "investing" that does the market magic for reversal. It's the combined dominant 'market intent' that causes the reversal. And in many cases, major reversals occur after some form of capitulation, massive volume exit of fearful and disheartened, combined with volume entry by the smart money (TA and FA combined).

But what will your strategy be? To always recommend people always be invested or to suggest when and when not to buy the list. If the later you need worry less about the list not doing well. Perhaps people won't come back because you tell them to be in cash and they don't want to hear that but others will figure you actually know something about what you're doing and they will stick with you waiting for a recommendation.

I developed my IIC 100 list on a lark back on a Saturday morning in September 2004 in a half-hearted attempt to mimic the IBD 100. I believe I spent about 3 hours before I realized it was futile because I don’t have access to as much data as IBD does.

However, I found that my list produced some decent winners so I started posting it monthly on my old http://MrBreakout.com site. I ran my scan monthly until November 2005 when for some reason people seemed to be interested in it. So I started running my scan weekly. Then there was some interest in comparing the performance of my list and IBD’s...There’s this guy who tracks the Top 10 on each list weekly. I also post it at Public Charts at Stockcharts.com. There are also a few blogs, forums and sites that talk about some of the one’s that appear.

Anyway, the IIC 100 is hardly a list of recommendations. They are simply stocks in the Top 30% of my RS database that meet minimum latest quarter EPS and projected EPS parameters that I created. There are also a couple of other criteria I use.

Some don’t even belong on the list because they have a buyout going on.

On this forum and a couple of others I post the ones that are on both the IIC and IBD 100’s...Those may be of interest to some since they meet 2 sets of criteria??? There are usually about 20...But I also list stocks under $15...lately that’s been about 30.

My intention is not to recommend anything...just offer up a list where some might find some ideas if they like those type. Comparing it to IBD is just for fun...And it will be pretty funny if the IIC 100 outperforms the IBD 100 this year since they spend millions on their database and I spend virtually chump change on mine.

Also, I use the list but it is not my primary source of getting trading ideas.

Thanks, Doug(IIC)

Hey Doug,

You happen to know the URL(and with 1k of bookmarks you should ) of a site that basicly aggregated the "hot topic stocks" for the various message boards etc.?

For the life of me I can't find that dang site again. I wanted to run my new FA system across that list. But I gotta have the list first. LOL

thanks,


student.

I vaguely remember something like that...but I don't have it...Sorry

The one who had her bra stuffed with paper?.... Yeah she was right cute but she was what, 15 I think?.... HEY! the perfect age for Peanuts.... jejeje....errrrrrrr

First in line: the link from the whitehouse!!!! Best laugh I had today. Even better than this:


It was a very hot, steamy July day in Minnesota. Helga, a hard working Swedish woman, had just hung the wash out to dry, put a roast in the oven, then went down the street to pick up some dry cleaning.

"Gootness, it's hot," she mused to herself as she walked down Main street.

She passed by a tavern. As the cool air rushed out through the open doorway, Helga thought, "Vy nodt?"

So she walked in and took a seat at the bar. The bartender came up and asked her what she would like to drink.

"Ya know," Helga said, "it is so hot, I tink I'll have myself zee cold beer."

The bartender asked, "Anheuser Busch?"

Helga blushed and replied "Vell fine, tanks, und how's yer pecker?"

Here's a trivia comment: Greg Marmalard called him Jugliss (or Juglish), Niedermeyer called him Jugdish.

But.... I have to admit.... I've seen the Blues Brothers at least 20 times.

Vastly underappreciated movie.
