Lentinman:

Or should I say, Lenten man, since this is Ash Wednesday.

I think that we are in a market top since the nuts are coming out of the woodwork. I get mail solicitations from at least 2-3 newletters every day. Now you say CNBC is giving us astrological forecasts for the market. What next--Anna Nicole Smith giving us her stock picks.

A friend sent me a write up (don't remember the name of the outfit) giving some "big" picks for 2005. There were two--one was SGP. I kind of agree. They're advertising their cholesterol drug like "H"--Vitoryin--don't have the spelling right cause I don't pay atttention. Ain't interested.
I'm convinced that the guys at the FDA have been on the take from the big drug companies. The lowered cholesterol goals are a pile of crap as far as I'm concerned. But the dumb doctors seem to buy everything that the pharmaco guys say. Any way, if SGP's V drug drags the cholesterol numbers down, it'll sell. The sheep will line up.

Well, maybe I can still get rid of those puts I put on my XOM position yesterday.
