[CANSLIM] TWA ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Tue, 17 Feb 1998 08:06:14 -0500 From: "Tom Worley" Subject: [CANSLIM] World Markets Looks like the US mkt should be opening up 40 or so pts, and I suspect strengthening from there. The Industrial Production report is due out this AM, not sure of the expectation, however doubt even a bad report will slow down the opening action. Asia had a decent day, and futures and European mkts have been strengthening over the past several hours. Remember that Friday is options expiration, so expect increased volatility this week.

Anthony, have sent out my queries, as you stumped me with your question. So far, no one has come up with an answer. Looking at the chart and the current RS, does not look like a stock where I would want to exercise my warrants. If they have value, would be more likely to straight sell them, and not worry about the "broken three day protect period". I have dealt with a number of warrant plays before, and never heard this term. If your exercise/sell decision hinges on it, would recommend spending the money and call the company for an answer.

It already broke out once to the current level of 16-17, and if it does so again it will be a secondary move from _no_ base. If you aren't already in you will be making a momentum play. Also, it's currently trading at 17-1/4, well off the 18-1/8 it was at earlier in the day. - - ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 17 Feb 1998 18:34:57 +0200 From: "David S.

I have a question. I plotted two companies 12 month quotes using a simple line graph. The companies are NSC and CSX. The two stock prices range from about $35 to $60 over the year. What struck this novice was the striking similarities with the rise and fall of the two companies. The lines almost match. Is this unusual ? Significant ?

I am sure nobody likes delayed quotes including me. We have little choice though-just like you thesedays. I was wondering why live quotes are not widely available, specially with so much advances in technology. Who controls the display of live quotes, as I am sure a lot of brokerage houses will be willing to give it to the public and several sites will able to display these. Is it mm, sec, nasdaq-nyse-ase?

I do know that each BD must pay a monthly fee to the exchanges for quotes, so guess it's all monetary. Until that practice is abolished, unlikely anyone will give live quotes for free, except as a "loss leader". I also suspect the major BDs are not pushing for a change, as they want us dependent on them to get live quotes. Any statements or opinions are strictly my own and not that of my employer.

After the tech stock profit taking yesterday, I am expecting the US mkts to open up, altho may only be 20 pts or so initially. If the selloff on tech is done, then maybe today NASDAQ can participate all the way to the close. I did note yesterday that the Russell 2000 once again did better (down less) than NASDAQ. However, yesterday was quite clearly another "big cap" day, with the rest of the "safe money" once again going to the bond mkt.
