Thank you Clark.

I'm going back to the one that did the best for me...

BLNK, long...fingers crossed.

           QS      (long)       QuantumScape Corp. Cl. A

This may be a strange pick; and I might regret it.

It closed Friday at $37. per share, I think.

52 wk. low/high       $9.74/$40.00

Hdq. in Westbury, N.Y.    Industry:  Shell Companies

QuantumScape  trade on NYSE under symbol:  "QS" beginning Nov. 27'

Was Business Combination with Kensington Capital Acquisition Corp.

I first saw this name and symbol, I think, last Fri. Looked interesting. I walked over

to my desk, wrote the symbol down. Then the next time I got on Clark's board, there was

a lot of information about it; mostly from Kadee. I've been waiting, thinking someone

else might select it.  But I guess I'm the first. I don't remember the TV show I saw it on.

      (10:30pm./Sun./Tex.time/29 Nov.2020)

      I think it's going to be an interesting week. I just pulled up my "SOFT4" graph on

      all 6 entries. That's Strength of Trend, 6 months weekly chart with a 4 wk. mov. avg.

      I looked at graphs on QQQ, WMT, MRNA, BLNK, QS, NMM. They all look bullish.

The daily chart is a little overbought but the weekly chart looks good to me. schrts.co/ZHByszaH

This will be the last week that I will be a moderator due to age and  slowly declining health.  It has been my pleasure to serve for many years.   Many thanks for keeping the board clean and trouble-free.  DI may take a more active roll or Laura may name a new mod, as appropriate,  I''ll  hang around as a player on "Stock Pick" as long as my brain and eyesight keep working, and clark is willing to run it.  Many thanks to clark for his time and effort, 

[clarkrl2]

ModE97 thank you for your work as moderator for many years.

[kadee79]

I was wrong...instead of using today's open, I was using Friday's close when I said Arch's choice had gone up $10.  

[architecto25]

( 1:00am / Tue. / Tex. time / 1 Dec. 2020 )

Kadee, I made the same mistake ( my message #5 )… I thought all choices were going to be very

bullish; however, I didn't think that some of the opening numbers were going to be the high numbers

for the day... Oh Well, there's 4 more days to get really high numbers....   LOL.

Arch.

Mod, I'm sorry to hear that your health is declining.   
But I'm sure glad you are going to stick around & give us heck now/then!

(2:00am./ Fri./ Tex. time/ 4 Dec. 2020)

Mod, Yes., I'd like to endorse and repeat some of the things Kadee said. "We're sure glad you are going

to stick around & give us heck now/then." I spent a lot of time on the computer tonight. Saw some

interesting stuff; probably remember none of it today. Now I think it's time for bed...

Arch.
