Inspirational Quote

Goethe (1749-1832)
Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness. Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation) there is one elementary truth the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, providence moves too. All sorts of things then occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issue from the decision, raising in one's favor all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance which no one could have dreamed would come his way. Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in It. Begin it now.

Q2 INDUSTRY LEADER BOARD

We watch the first 5 - 10 days of the Quarter to see where the momentum is.
As of April 10,2006 the following industry/sectors are strongest:

GOLD
SILVER
PUBLISHING NEWSPAPER
FARM/CONSTR. EQUIPMENT
STEEL/IRON
OIL & GAS (Services as well)
BIOTECH
ALUMINUM

I'll wait a week or so, to see if these industries continue their mojo
if any drop off , or, perhaps others emerge.
