Congrats to Mod & Ty on last weeks finishes. I kind of bombed, but I also haven't been paying any attention...too much garden work to do when it's not a heat index of over 100º!
Sooo, I'll go with one of my old stand-bys & hope it does something good.
ZIXI, long |

Re: reply #7. Thank you clarkrl Forgot to change digit from 92 to 93 on June 3. Unfortunately, time just marches on. We all get older each year, whether we like it or not. That's life. And life is quite nice now at the Grand Palms ALF....ooh, good food and service. Have secure wi-fi connection for internet.

I think Tyfighter injected VMRI with some steroid concoction before the race began ... kaboom and away! Nice lead to start the week!

Looks like we are seeing some big moves on the picks this week!
It is anyone's game!
I cannot remember a stock gaining 20% one day, and losing exactly the same amount the second day here.
tyfighter3 could see an easy 20% increase another day this week.
That stock chart is all over the board.
With the Dow and S&P 500 setting record highs, we could be set up for a big sell off this Thursday or Friday
