Jim Goodman's "The Right Side of the PSYCLE sm"
Stocks/Industry Groups Timing Newsletter, and Education service
"The Teaching Newsletter"....just Learn the Patterns and Concepts Taught....then View the Charts, and Choose from sec. (3), (6), (7) ideas.... NEWSLETTER, ended formally, back in mid-April 2000, with issue # 207+, a while ago....(so/but this NL is Not really being actually published formally, publically, any more, and has not been, for quite a while now ....I just wanted a place to keep track of what I would have said and done and felt, since I was forced undeservedly to stop my NL, months ago....this is ONLY for my own edification), and anyone reading this has NOT gotten it from me.... dated: 9:30 am, PST, Tuesday, Dec. 12, 2000

Important Note: this serious, extremely valuable "NL" has No longer been publically available nor disseminated, for a while, due to gestapo, uncaring, ridiculous, illogical, NASD/SEC rules, and the uncaring, inconsiderate, and thoughtless nature of the brokerage firm with which I am currently associated.... I am just doing a continual 'working version' forward, here, twice each week, to maintain and continue my real, actual, in-writing, in-advance, very-long-term track record, and to offer further significant, in-advance, in-writing, 'proof' of the value and excellent timing experience of my "PSYCLE sm" concepts and teachings....

1) "PSYCLE SENSE sm": new:

Ho hum, lots more longside Winners....hope you got a bunch of mine near recent lows....but, still, gonna be rough going after initial pops end, as some tax-sellers remain out there, and others back and fill, as usual, right ?

and now, as you have been taught, that many depresseds have already rallied nicely, some 200 DMA's are starting to actually turn upwards for those, meaning, as you know, after/on big pullbacks, many will present themselves as potential buys again down the road....and, this may mean, as I intimated at the recent easily-seen lows which few others called as I did, the bigger message of a bigger bottom recently than 'the still-scared 95 %' are considering, dig ? but, again, we never 'scenarioize', and remain flexible....do note, still-real-small Puts list, though....and continuing nicely-taken-advantage-of I.G> rotation in section (2) item (a) just below....neat, huh ? I am glad to be of such help....

2) "What's Been Said, and What I've Read":

a) Important Industry Group (Rotation) notes:
1) with RCL, CCL, TSG, FUN, PKS, CHB, etc., up, recall who was, as usual, the first/only to give Travel/Leisure stocks out from base lows herein for you.... 2) as more of the Reguonal Bank stocks I was first/only to give out herein from beautiful long bases lows, rise further, just remember how easy all this is at times, and how many people have unrealistic expectations/demands, and/or impatience about this whole process.... 3) and, of course, I was among the first few to give depr. Semis, Chip, etc. stocks, herein, right near recent lows for you....hope you got some....but, of interest, view TQNT, which, after a bounce, formed a triple-top, then tanked again, see it ? again, that's why, as you have been taught, you want to take the QLG, and not remain in hope for iunrealistic gains, especially in this market, dig ? and why we rec'd. you take many Q L % Gains at recent 'initial-bounce-highs'....

4) and, as usual, I will have been the first/only to have given out the depr. Telecom/Wireless stocks herein right from at their recent lows for you, popping nicely, ay ? so what else is new.... 5) watch for our depr. Aero./Def. stocks to finish bottoming ahead....with, as usual, my being the first to give them out at recent lows for you....the pattern rarely changes.... 6) and looks like we will be correct, with the depr. "Office Supply' stocks for S.T. pops.... 7) and, we got yet another takeover, as BBY buys out MLG, given you herein at lows, neat.... 8) keep in mind, that, as I taught you a while ago, lower Mtg. rates are often NOT as bullish for Housing prices, as 'the 95 %' intimate, historically....but this is too complicated to explain here, call me if desired.... 9) and, seeing more expected-only-by-me S.T. tops among Extended Drug/Medical stocks...watch for this to unfold further over time....

b) more, misleading, sensationalized, Late, and/or improper/incorrect comments from the Financial Media, Reporters, etc.:
1) as first suggested mby me years ago, but nowhere nearly what they SHOULD do, the SEC plans stricter 'disclosure' laws for analysts and money mgrs.' opinions made in Media like TV....but, of course, NOT requiring all their past actual L.T. predictions....God forbid they would actually do something that would help millions of people....of further B.S. interest, of course, the Media and TV people say any such rules would 'raise 1st amendment considerations'....this, from Media people who are so honest and not-misleading and not-sensationalizing, themselves, right ? not.... 2) Tue. 10 am, CNBC did stroy, echoing that day's WSJ article, on "stocks that have been delisted by the OTC", like, about 40+ so far in 2000, the most in a long time, they said, and, as you might surmise, this story coming out near a L.T. bottom, after huge price drops, confirms my sentiment comments recently, dig ? see how easy this is at times ?

c) more incorrect/misleading/sensationalized, and/or improper comments, from Fundamentalists/Companies, newspapers/magazines, etc., vs. illogical/Contrary/Unlinkable, past/present/future stock price moves:
1) another decent contrary indicator, off Multex, an overpaid/overrated Morningstar analyst recently asked, "Is there any hope left for Telecom stocks ?" , get it ? neat for us, ay ? .... 2) continuing to confirm my first-said prediction, recent L.A.T. 12/4, headline, "GDP data shows Japan's economic growth slowing"....'nuff said.... 3) seeing SUNW get whacked still more, (recall I gave it herein near top as a Put, of course), I just laughed, because it again proves my concepts....also, only Mon., finally, after big drop, noon, did David Faber CNBC do a negative piece, titled, "Sun Setting ?", which, as you know, often presages the beginning of the end of the decline, sentiment-wise, yes ? thanks for nothing, again, overpaid analysts and CNBC....the pattern rarely changes....

d) more, likely late, incorrect, and/or misleading, comments, from Brokerage firms, NL writers, Analysts, economists, Money Managers, etc.:
1) annother useless overpaid analyst, on CNBC, FRi. at the close, Michael Cannaylick ?, actually said, "just buying the strongest comapnies will always reward you all the time"....excuse me ? But isn't pretty-much EVERY, SINGLE, "quality/strongest company' stock, DOWN a bunch in recent months ? next....

e) more general items proving why one should probably ignore 95 % of everything else out there:
1) exactly as i was, as usual, first to predict the top in, Thu., news stories about recalls, accidents, and danger (never mind oversupply and too many entrants in) in those 'scooters'....as they become, as ALL fads become in my "PSYCLE sm"....ditto with those 'desk waterfall' things here....human nature NEVER changes.... 2) of interest 12/8 L.A.T. headline, "Gallup Poll shows Americans Less Optimistic" ....hmmm.... also as I predicted first herein for you at the top, yes ? citing "new pessimism, with 48 % saying things are getting worse, and 39 % saying things are getting better, a dramatic shoft"....

So, as you have seen, for years now, how well one does, often, just "doing" the best 'individual' stocks, and rotating Ind. Groups, chart-technically, and sentiment-wise, mostly long-side, while ignoring, or going contrary to, 95 % of all Media messages, and "indexes/averages" comments, from the peanut gallery ? By just getting my output, alone, you do much better, and save time, by not having to even try to "seek, and process" tons of other, useless fundamental info., anyway....and we also help remove potential emotional problems for you, before they begin....

3) Most recent Hypothetical "PSYCLE sm" transactions, to be mimicked, and referred back to:

Always remember to view "1-year-at-least past" charts of everything you can view, herein, along with their 200 day moving averages (DMA's), to "see/learn" the "PSYCLE patterns", and see where/when stocks in section (3) were Hypothetically bought near lows, and put near highs....all % percentage 'Gains' are just logical ESTIMATES for L.T., ITM options, where exist, and/or on Margin, where no options exist....

* Previously assumed Long positions most recently SOLD (showing the actual price changes, in parentheses, from the price where/when recently originally recommended herein, to the price where very recently Hypothetically "SOLD")....
"Q" = 'quick', i.e., after less than a month or so holding, "VQ" = 'very quick', i.e., just a couple of weeks time, and "VVQ" = 'very very quick', i.e., often after just a few days since 'bought' herein....and, L.T., means 'long-term', i.e., at least a few months' time holding period:

at least 1/2 pos. calls PRGN (15+ to 26+) for VVVQ 275% Gain....bal. calls CNXT (20 to 33-) for VVVQ 250% G....bal. calls CYMI (20+ to 30) for VVVQ 175% G ....all puts PDII. (137+ to 80+) for VVVQ 175% G....1/2 pos. calls DLX (20 to 24) for 80% G....1/2 pos. stk.on.mgn. AAI (4. to 6 1/8) for Q 66% G....bal. puts GUC (104- to 88+) for VQ 60% G....all calls CMH (8++ to 12-) for L.T. 70% G....

and/but, longs, LUB, REP, PLL ?, AII. ?, OCN ?, CNS ?, ALI., LOR ny, and 1/2 pos. stk.on.mgn. TGX (7 to 4 to 5 3/4) for L.T. loss, and, puts, UNH no ?, CEFT ?, HBC ?, for very quick, very small losses, normally of small overall consequence to a properly diversified L.T. portfolio....I would not be surprised if our QSL's turn out to be fakeout breakouts, but we must conserve portfolio capital here hwre we can....

NOTE: while most of the $ 5. to $ 10. stocks are listed here as "stocks on margin" ("stk.on.mgn."), if one Had bought L.T., in-the-money calls options, their % Gains/Losses would have been multiplied, higher, right ? We prefer not to buy Calls on most stocks under $ 10., unless their patterns are phenomenal, as their options premiums tend to be too high, vs. buying those stocks on Margin, with close stops, where suitable, instead, with less arithmetic risk, and yet, similar reward potential--- stocks themselves have no "premium", right ? and, of course, if one just bought said longs for cash, and not on margin, the % Gains/Losses here would be relatively smaller, though still excellent, for such short holding periods, yes ? also, obviously, these "hypothetical transactions" are always listed, from biggest % Gains, to smallest, then all losses....

* Newly/Additionally BOUGHT/Buyables, right around/near these prices only:

(either for Cash, especially in Pensions, and/or on Margin where suitable, and/or Only L.T., in-the-money Options, where suitable/available, always Diversifying, always with close Stops below/above recent lows/highs):
**** Newly BOUGHT Long-side, for potential Rises: (note, most are still pretty low-priceds, read thoroughly, some new "repeats" and "revisited" "new" ones again, here): each alphabetically by symbol: again, "just get real close" to suggested prices:

BC @ 17-, 1/2 pos. BLM @ 1 3/8, 1/2 pos. CTB @ 9 3/8, 1/2 pos. EFII. @ 13+, 1/2 pos. FFIV @ 25-, 1/2 pos. HNV @ 0.28, 1/2 pos. IOM @ 4 1/4, 1/2 pos. JCP @ 9 3/8, 1/2 pos. LEA @ 20+, 1/2 pos. LTV @ 1/2, 1/2 pos. MTP @ 22 1/8, 1/2 pos. TLK @ 4 3/4 ?,

"Repeats": (some of these are/were '1/2 size positions): AII. no, AIR @ 10+, ALU @ 3 5/8, ATYT @ 7+, BGO @ 0.405, CCC @ 5, CEL @ 10+, CHB @ 3, CHINA @ 6 5/8, DR @ 12, ELNK @ 6 1/8, FON @ 22 3/4, FUN @ 18-, FRT @ 19, GEB @ 1.06, GSR @ 0.43, GY @ 7 5/8, HA @ 1 7/8, KM @ 5 1/2 ?, KRY @ 7/8, LOJN @ 7, LOR @ 4- ?, LRW @ 2 7/8, MLS @ 16++ ?, MRBA @ 4 3/4, ODP @ 6 1/8, PHC @ 18++, PKS @ 14+, PLL @ 18++, RAD @ 2 1/2, ROC @ 5.06, SGI. @ 3 5/8, SVRN @ 6++, TRAC @ 1-, WCOM @ 15-...."buy (only) low", right ?

** Important: took, MXR, BLM ?, Off the pot. Long Buys list, before they might have been Hypothetically "bt."....we do Not "Guess" at bottoms....or tops....

**** Newly BOUGHT, long "PUTS" (or "short sales" if no puts), for potential Drops:
alphabetically by symbol:
(new ones): BAX @ 86, DDIC @ 42+,

"Repeats": (some are/were '1/2 pos.') CEFT @ 45+ ?, DUK @ 90-, FPL @ 66+, FRX @ 140-, HBC @ 76, HMA @ 22-, MRK @ 92++, UNH @ 120-,

and/but, took, 'anything already way down', and, , and the 'just missed' ones just below here, Off the pot. Puts list, before "put", as they aborted their patterns immediately (also see recent past issues taken off, here)....remember, any new highs = off the Puts list....so VIEW their charts, to see what 'aborted Puts patterns' look like, for YOUR lifetime benefit....also, obviously, where they have fallen nicely, many of these were 'just missed' herein as well, right ?

*** and/but, among stocks recently specifically given you herein, in sections (6) and (7) below, we "just Missed", AMZN, ITT, CD, WMO, VSEA, INAP, ELON, TSM, LDG, GRT, LVLT, BANR, CMTN, TTE, GPC, PKX, SQNM, USIX, QTRN, SPLS, as Longs/Buys near very recent lows, and, OSIP, CAH, as Puts/Shorts, near recent highs....Every single stock ever listed here over past NL's was specifically given you herein, in sec. (6) or (7), previously, and you very likely could still have caught them, if you took the time to view their charts....More proof of the power of "PSYCLE sm" patterns....again, just because I honestly admit to "missing" some, which DO work anyway, that I give you herein, does not mean YOU have to miss those same stocks....if you do just a little work, YOU may certainly catch ones, which I may happen to just miss, herein....making you money, in both directions, most of the time, yes ?

*** All previously mentioned ideas are Followed-up here below, for your Educational/Trading benefit....check these lists/issues briefly, to see if any YOU own, or are considering owning, are mentioned....

4) Already given out in previous NL's, assumed Hypothetical "Long-side" positions:
(issues moving since last time, worthy of following-up, and/or mentioning, because of recent price moves, still remaining long in most all of them, unless otherwise noted):

(* too late to buy up here, usually up already, and/but acting A.O.K., so stay in these, long, for now):

**** note: (sos) means "Sell On Strength" (i.e., on a bounce up towards resistance, and/or where it broke down from)....("S") means Sell it here (if still right at/near the listed price level).

* But, then, these, are acting too Strong, and/or are Bouncing, intraday, and/or Must Weaken anew, nevertheless, and/or are sales on pullbacks/weakness ("sow"):

6) Now--- Here are Other, Fuller lists, of still-Depressed, Long Buys, near their recent Lows Only, for potential Rises towards resistance, always Diversified (w/close stops, when/if their basing or "EVB" patterns break down):

Potential Longs, by Industry Groups, for "Rotation":

(NOTE: again, if they are already down appreciably from their highs, do NOT chase them down, wait for bounces):
(re-read my "Downside/Puts" booklet): Potential Puts list, by I.G.'s where practical, near their Highs, ONLY --- do NOT "chase down" much: note: this list supercedes all previous ones....these are the ONLY Puttables here, as all others have been Removed:
