I have enjoyed reading Kathleen Odean's book "Wall Street Slang." It is filled
with both trading terms as well as slang. Very interesting book. (Published
in 1988 so if fairly current.)

I am looking this and saying, "I can't believe I said that!"

Of course, Eric (and another poster -- sorry I erased your article)
are completely correct.

So why do so many stocks I buy, fall ?   :^)

Over the long haul the market goes up, but it's the short term that
is so unpredictible.  (If you believe in laws of large numbers, even
most short term movements average out to a rise.  But individual
short periods can be terrible.)

>2) a stock can only fall to zero but can go up forever.

I assume we will take measures to protect against major movements
in either direction.

I've kind of been wondering the same thing.  About six
years ago I started keeping my checkbook in dBase files
with some little routines I'd lashed together; then a
couple of years ago added my credit card accounts.  Then
last year I was given a copy of MYM as a gift.  I dutifully
sat down and entered five months worth of data in it, then
lost interest after a few days and stuck to my old .dbf
files.  Then a few weeks back I responded to MECA's mailer
to buy MYM 9, installed it when it arrived, and then
dutifully figured out how to split up my paycheck between
401K and credit union and pre-tax health insurance payments
and whatnot.  But I'm still wondering -- will I really get
that much for all this effort?  I have a pretty good idea
just knocking around in the back of my head how my money
gets spent.  MYM is interesting for keeping track of 
portfolio prices (I like to use it to call Compuserve to
update prices on the funds I'm in), but I have to wonder
if there aren't other ways to do that too.

While Schwab does not charge the custodial fee, you will quickly save the
$25 yearly fee that Waterhouse charges in commission charges.  Really
depends on what you intend to do and how many trades.  If you are going to
stick with the no commission mutual funds that Schwab offers, then you will
obviously come out ahead there.  However, if you are going to trade stocks,
you will quickly recoup the $25 yearly fee, likely in a single trade!

BTW, I think Waterhouse even waives the fee for the first year and gives
you your first trade free.

     I think:

	 1) IBM will cut at most 50% on the dividend since one of their
	    business philosiphies is commitment to the shareholder.
	    Cutting more than 50% is too much of a shock, I imagine!
	 2) I expect stock price will go up after the announcement since

I have never heard of bottom-feeding, but I have heard of bottom fishing.   
Bottom fishing is the purchasing of declining stock because one believes  
it is at its exact bottom.  I advise against it; the first thing I want to  
know about a stock is its price/book value ratio.  Going long (the most  
common form of investment and speculation) is the direct purchase of a  
stock and is done when one believes the price of a stock will rise.  Going  
short (or short-selling) is the borrowing of shares and selling them in  
the hopes that the stock price will fall so that the shares can be bought  
back at a lower price and given back to the owner.

Yea, if your goal is to avoid taxes at the expense of making money.
You can do a lot better than either of these by taking everything
you make and spending it.  Then you won't have to pay income taxes
at all!  The ultimate income tax avoidance scheme! :-)

OK, guys, what does this means? Does it means it's the time to buy some

figure out what is the best SCIENTIFIC food for dogs at last. So we don't
need any more MRI, CT-SCAN for dogs any more. SHORT THOSE MRI stocks, quick!
Buy some dog food companys. As a matter of fact, buy all of them, you can't
miss that way.......

Oh well, just let me know if you make up your mind;-).

Nope!
This is why it's generally a good idea to buy in AFTER the fund goes 
ex-distribution, so that you don't suddenly have a big tax liability
on shares you only owned for a few days.

     Yes, I bought both the Feb 50 calls and the Feb 45 puts.  So, I'm

     I'm not sure on how much it will cut its dividend, but if the amount is
     less than street expectations, that will be favourable for the stock. 
     The question is: Does anybody know what the street expectation is?

     If the dividend is really chopped, then your $40 price scenario will
     probably occur.

Figgie and the co-author, Arizona economics prof Gerald Swanson,
have given away all profits to charity.  Figgie is not some
merchant of doom but rather an industrialist who has felt
a patriotic call to warn his fellow citizens of what is going
on.  Both Figgie and Swanson were heavily involved in the
Grace Commission.

So your cynisism is unjustified here.  I myself am always
skeptical of merchants of doom, I just see no way that
we'll pay off our debt in any realistic terms, especially

 Stock price have climbed nearly 75% in the last 5 months.
 Recently there was 4 for 3 stock split
Company's business: Using a technology called insituform they form pipes
inside existing pipe lines (water, sewage, etc.). resin coated polymeric
tubes are forced into existing pipe lines and hot water is passed thru
these tubes to cook the resins which then stick to the existing pipe lines.
No digging, no traffic diversions, etc. The company has little debt and they
make lot of acquisitions in their respective target areas. The company seems
to be independent of other Insituform companies trading on the Nasdaq. They
are also expanding to Europe.
	I thought of buying this stock, but felt 15 or 16 would be good price.
However i don't want to be left out if its growth prospects are extremely
good. Do anyone have any further information on this company? Any projections
on the company and its stock performance appreciated.
