hey haami, except for the pink stock not bad thinking at all about MSFT (been flat for years) and i really like IRBT as well. Adult daycare concept sounds good too but pink stocks are too volatile. also, as you go into 2007 don't forget china! with trillions of US $$ left there from trade surplus, chinese stocks are looking really bullish. couple china stocks i own and have done really well for me are CTRP & LFC and i just bought ACH. currently looking into gaming / casion stocks in and around china. been doing some research on MPEL but i wish i had got into LVS. ===================================================== FYI: some tit bits before we get too carried away with being a trader, here's a small fact about the world most successful investor (and no he is not a trader): Warren Buffett purchased Washington Post stocks in 1973 and still owns them to this date. Same with Coco Cola stocks purchased in 1988.
