Subject: [CANSLIM] BASE question

Hi everyone,

Just want to say thanks to those who responded to the questions in my first
post.
All comments were very helpful explaining Pvt. Point, Volume Dryups, and ATR
(not ART as I mispelled, sorry).

I'm watching a few stocks that are in a base.  Is there any rule as to when
one should buy into a base or is it just guess work as to whether the base
will last for 4 week or 24 weeks?  Same question with a LLUR graph.  Is
there no way of telling how long the upward trend will last (just hop on the
sooner the better)?   :^)

Also,
I'd be interested in hearing what some of you think of CNYF (canslim #s I
believe).  Its a regional bank and has been in a tight base for about a
month. Only about 4.6M shares outstanding and only 10% held by (10)
Institutions.

Thanks,
Erik

Cube is being broken up and sold and it's price will track that of it's
purchaser (HLIT): CUBE = (HLIT * .54) + (perceived value of semi mfg).
Based on the price behavior, people weren't valuing the semi operation
very highly. I bring this up since this fact will tend to limit the
upside.

Good call, Bob. I was misled by the headlines indicating
that their "digital video compression unit" was being sold
to HLIT. What is odd is that based on a total merger of CUBE
into HLIT for 0.5427 shares HLIT for each share of CUBE,
CUBE should be trading much lower (around $34 instead of
47), unless I'm missing something.

The rule is you should not buy in a base, as you say, you don't know how
long the stock will stay in the base, or even if it will ever come out of
the base.  You need to buy on breakouts, which is where the pivot point you
asked about comes in.

Stock Car racing, as a  spectator sport, has been very big  for many years.
The top line is the Winston Cup series which draws capacity crowds for every
race.  Big sponsors are waiting in line for a chance to spend millions to
support a Winston Cup team.  In the last couple of years there has been
growing interest in marketing repicla race cars and that sort of thing.
However, there does'nt seem to be much investor interest.  See ACTN, eps 97
rs 5.

I second that - ACTN was a top CANSLIM pick in June '97, had extrordinary
numbers then. Now they're lying, cheating, and stealing to keep their price
up (see Greenberg on TSC).

Greetings my fellow canslim'rs,

We have a member of our group who is having problems configuring
Microsoft Outlook to send only text messages to [e-mail].
If you remember, the canslim list software is configured to reject
non-text messages such as HTML mail, binary attachments, etc.

Since I'm not an Outlook user, I can't help here.  Is there someone out
there who jump in and help?  If so, please reply to the group.

Outlook users just need to go to:

Tools
Options
Mail Format

and select "plain text" as the send format.  Its not a bad idea to adjust
the settings so that encoding is "UUENCODE" and the line wrap is at 72 - 76
characters.  If you dont use UUENCODE some systems have difficulty with your
messages

For the Outlook user..

In your Outlook tool bar, click on "tools", then click on "options",
then click the "send" tab.. You should then see at the bottom of that
tab, two buttons for sending mail in either "plain text" or HTML. Click
on "plain text" then "ok" and you should be good to go..

Subject: [CANSLIM] Warren Buffet

Fortune magazine had an article on the stock market written by
Warren Buffet.  I only had time to skim parts of it (I'm definitely
going to read it when I get time), but I think it is worth hunting
down.  Couple of things I noted in the article - investors pay out
$100 billion a year in various investing activities - bid and ask
spread, commissions, advice, etc.  Buffet thinks returns over the
next 16 years are going to be far below what they have been for the
past 16 years (maybe it was 17), maybe 6% over the next 17
years, versus 19% I think it was over the past 16/17 years.
Anyway, good stuff, also good sidebar on this Bezer guy who runs
Amazon.com and his experience with Buffet. Its the edition with
Businessman of the Century (henry ford, finalists were Bill gates,
Thomas Watson, Afred Sloan, think I might have gone with
Watson) on the cover.

I get the idea that it was more regional, mostly a southern thing,
but recently has become popular around the country, bigger tv
contracts, etc.  Maybe that will alter investor sentiment.

HTML documents are pages formatted so they can be transmitted
electronically between computers, then displayed in their original form
by a Browser, such as Netscape, Internet Explorer, or AOL's Browser.

Web pages are written in HTML.
If you use internet explorer for a browser you can view the HTML
document that is displaying the web page you are looking at by clicking
on "view" then "source". It will display the page in notepad or other
text document.
I am certainly no expert on this, I just like many others create pages
for my website using HTML.

I don't want to clutter the list with this subject, although I can be
reached privately if anyone has questions.

I have suggested both of these as POSSIBLE climax candidates.  KIDE has
been through a warp-speed 50% correction (!) and may yet recover and move
higher (given todays action).  QCOM has slowed its advance in an orderly
fashion as I suggested would be nice in my prior post.  It may be ok (not a
climax).  Only time will tell, of course, but QCOM in particular looks
better after the last 2 or 3 days.

John,

You never see anything on this board except plain text because the board
is explicitly configured to reject anything but a plain text.  One of
our new members has had trouble getting his postings through because his
mail tool defaulted to HTML messages.  My original posting on this
thread was a request for the members of our board to help out the
new-comer.

Jeff - canslim admin/owner

PS  Thanks to John Lynch and Joe Scott for their quick response.
