      It would make a nice combination, wouldn't you think?

        The IBD boards are getting funnier all the time. Here's my reply to a very absurd post...

          Update on my present positions... 9/06/05

          1. ELN - Bought at $6.88. Closing price today was $8.78

          2. PDC - Bought at $14.25. Closing price today was $15.49

          3. OFG - Bought at $13.54. Closing price today was $14.47

          I closed EZEN today for $2.40. That's a 23% gain. It will probably do well, but it's not running quick enough for me. I'll be looking for a good entry on AOB or HOM.

          PDC rebounded some. I'll keep holding.

          ELN took a hit today, which is not a bit suprising. It makes for a good buying opportunity. It's going to fly very soon.

          OFG - What can I say? It was a bargain that I couldn't resist!

            I had thought that HISC might be a good opportunity, but the more I look at it the less I like it. I'll sit back and watch this one. Maybe I can learn something from it. It's looking more like it could be a scam.

              It's time to take another serious look at RSSYF. A lot of good things are coming from them.



              Any comments?

                I'm wondering if DHB might be worth looking at again. Here's what got my interest up...



                $60 mln charge chinks body armor maker DHB

                by Catherine Tymkiw
                Shares of DHB Industries Inc. sank to a 52-week low after the maker of body armor said it would take a charge of up to $60 million to stop production of some bulletproof vests. An analyst said it could be a takeover target.

                DHB said today that it stopped production of a line of vests containing Zylon, a material intended to stop bullets, after the National Institute of Justice revoked certification of all vests containing the material because of safety concerns. DHB said it would help law enforcement agencies with replacement vests.

                Investors pummeled the Westbury, L.I.-based company’s stock, pushing shares down as much as 24.6%, to $5.02, in its heaviest trading volume since March.

                The Zylon issue is the latest chink in DHB’s armor. In May, the Marine Corps recalled more than 5,000 combat vests made by a DHB subsidiary in Florida on concern that they didn’t meet minimum standards.

                DHB could become an acquisition target by its larger competitors, one analyst said. Possibilities include Armor Holdings Inc. of Jacksonville, Fla., which said this week that it would stop making Zylon vests and recently bought a rival armor maker in Michigan, and Costa Mesa, Calif.-based Ceradyne Inc.

                “This ($60 million charge) is going to take a bit bite out of [DHB’s] capital,” said Ivan Feinseth, director of research at Matrix USA, which doesn’t own DHB shares but rates the company a “strong buy.” “There’s a good chance that one (rival) or the other could purchase them. They’re at an attractive value here.”

                DHB Chief Executive David Brooks said he expects the stock to recover. “Every company of the right size is an acquisitions target but we’re selling at a very, very low price,” Mr. Brooks said. But “if someone makes us an offer we can’t refuse, we’ll look at it.”

                    Webs, have you been watching your previous holding ACW? It may be worth watching as it looks like it is setting up for another move...

                      I wouldn't mind getting back in ACW. I'll check it out. Thanks.

                        If you guys want to catch a stock right before it pops up, buy it as soon as I sell it. I sold EZEN yesterday for $2.40. It jumped up to $2.74 today. True, I did get a decent profit, but it still pisses me off to see one do that after I sell it. I'll either wait for it to pull back later, or I'll move on to something else.

                        RSSYF is still looking good. I may look for an entry.

                          Bummer. Frankly, I'm a little surprised you sold it before the triangle resolved itself. Especially after the red channel turn up dude. It was just a matter of time!!! argh!!!!!!! haha.

                          Ah well, chin up. Nice and high......................................so I can give you an uppercut! lol jk

                            I'm a little slow sometimes Spike.

                            As a young Vulcan, I rode the short bus.

                              Nice move on ELN today.

                              PDC and OFG sucked.

                              AOB didn't meet my limit price...maybe tomorrow.
