Ken Deen's THE AGGRESSIVE TRADER(tm) "Seeking double-digit profits in one to four months" TRADING IDEAS Vol. 2, No. 34 P.O. Box 4791 February 24, 1993 Santa Barbara, CA 93140 1:00pm New York Time CompuServe: 72020,2050 (805) 565-2039 Internet: 72020.2050@compuserve.com Market Stance: Bearish There will be no followup on these ideas: Breakouts (The following stock(s) have excellent sales and earnings growth, and have just broken out from a six-week or longer base.): * Western Gas Resources (NYSE: WGR, $28.25) EPS:97, RS:76, GRS:136->110, PE:20, Oil&Gas-Production/Pipeline Climactic Selloff/Rebounds (The following stock(s) have excellent sales and earnings growth, are in long-term uptrends, and have just had a climactic selloff-and-rebound.): * Lincare Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: LNCR, $21.00) EPS:95, RS:48, GRS:170->197, PE:17, Medical-Outpatient/Home Care Announcement: (*) Improved Group Ranking The manner in which group strength is reported has recently changed. Every Wednesday, Investor's Business Daily lists all 197 industry groups (plus the S&P 500 and S&P Industrial indices) ranked in order of percent change over the prior six months. This ranking is on a scale of 1 to 199, with #1 being the best performing group and #199 the worst. An entry, for example, of GR:37->28, ..., Computer Software means that the ranking of the Computer Software group is 28, as of the most recent Wednesday. The first number, 37, is the average rank over the preceding eight Wednesdays. From this information, one may infer that the computer software group is performing well (28 is a relatively low number on the 1-to-199 scale), and also that the software group appears to be gaining favor (28 is an improvement over the prior 8-week average of 37). ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Previous Alert: Vol.2 #33 (Feb. 23, 1993) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- *** To all who download this newsletter *** On April 1, 1993, this newsletter will be available only for a subscription fee.
