entire year.
Cablevision Systems Corp. said in an 8-K regulatory filing Thursday that the
Securities and Exchange Commission has opened a formal investigation of its
expense accounting. CVC is the largest cable operator in the New York area. The
SEC is looking into a matter the company first reported June 18 regarding its
Rainbow Media Group, the filing. Cablevision said it notified the SEC and the
U.S. attorney's office in Brooklyn about accounting irregularities it found at
its American Movie Classics unit. It fired 14 executives after an investigation;
Cablevision said that $6.2 million in expenses were improperly booked in 2002
instead of 2003, according to a June 18 SEC filing.
Cirrus Logic , which makes semiconductor chips for entertainment devices, said
late Thursday that it expects sales for its fiscal first quarter of 2004, ended
June 28, to be at the low end of its previously announced outlook of $40 million
to $45 million and anticipates double-digit percentage revenue growth in the
September quarter due to improving business conditions and growing backlog.
Thomson First Call analysts had been expecting a loss of 14 cents a share.

who has been with the company three years and formerly worked at

possibility that Liberty Media's deal might make it a less aggressive bidder for
Vivendi's entertainment properties.
CET Services said late Thursday it had sold a note from Road Runner Oil,
previously considered uncollectible and written off, for its $500,000 face
amount plus $46,000 interest. CET, which rehabilitates and develops contaminated

concentrate on its energy business.
Delta Air Lines warned investors late Thursday about a tender offer from TRC
Capital, at $13.55 a share, which is below the carrier's Thursday close of
$14.20. The SEC has warned about such "mini-tenders" as attempts to take
advantage of unaware investors.
Electric utility operator Dominion said after Thursday's bell that it filed to
issue up to $3 billion in securities over the next two years. Dominion said that

that mature in the next few years.

it had to supply power to grocery-chain Kroger .

thanks to the drug developer's Viread treatment for the virus that causes AIDS.

be down 2 percent from the year-ago $182.3 million, citing the 2002 political

average.
Canada-based gold miner Iamgold said late Thursday that it had been added to
the American Stock Exchange's Gold Bug Index .
Interstate Bakeries said late Thursday that losses by its workers' compensation
insurance provider will require higher reserves in the company's self-insured
fund. That will knock down earnings by 10 to 12 cents from Interstate's previous
estimate, according to the maker of snack pastry such as Twinkies and Drake's.
Interstate was projected to report 7 cents a share in earnings, according to the
Thomson First Call consensus.
Auto parts maker Methode Electronics said after Thursday's bell that its board
will evaluate an unsolicited cash tender offer from Dura Automotive . The offer,
announced early Thursday, was $23 per share, more than double the target's
$11.44 close at the end of the week's trading.

special dividend. The report cited an unnamed source.

2000.
Oracle said late Thursday that it extended its tender offer for PeopleSoft

expire July 3.
Orasure Technologies , which makes dental products, said late Thursday it filed

purposes.
Parkervision , which makes communications products, said late Thursday that it
registered about 1.4 million shares that had been privately placed in March with
members of the controlling Parker family.
Barron's figures Portfolio Recovery Associates is in a squeeze. The company
buys delinquent debt, such as credit-card accounts, and uses call centers "to
chase the deadbeats," though the company's Web site says it is committed to
giving debt collectors a good name. Barron's says the company's stock multiple
is about 31 times trailing earnings, which compares to a P/E of 10 for the
nearest competitor. Growth is a way to justify the company's multiple, but
Barron's checks with experts who say the key is to buy bad debt cheaply enough
to profit, and that takes keen judgment in competitive bidding. Two other
problems are raised: A secondary offering was completed despite the loss of a
contract that provided 10 percent of the company's revenue, and Portfolio
Recovery reports earnings based on estimates of debt recovery, requiring
restatements if those estimates were wrong.
Redback Networks said late Thursday that it expects to report $22 million in
second-quarter revenue, below the $30.7 million consensus of analysts reporting
to Thomson First Call. The maker of broadband telecom equipment cited continued
caution by its customers and weakness in the Pacific/Asian market.
Royal & Sun Alliance's insurance financial strength rating was downgraded one
notch Friday by Moody's to "Baa2" from "Baa1," as the rating agency noted
concerns that it may have to inject capital into its U.S. operations. The
outlook on all RSA group ratings outside the USA is stable; for the USA
subsidiaries the outlook is negative.
Shurgard Storage Centers said late Thursday that it plans a public offering of
4 million shares, with a 600,000 share over-allotment.
Printing company Troy Group said a special committee of its board had rejected
a sweetened takeover offer from Westar Capital LLC, which raised an unsolicited
bid from $3.50 per share to $4. Meantime, Troy is working toward an August close
of its merger with Dirk Inc., which is controlled, like Troy, by the Dirk
family.
UAL , parent of United Airlines, dropped its employee stock ownership plan,
freeing the workers' investment group to sell shares in the No. 2 airline, the
Chicago Tribune reported Friday.
US Airways said late Thursday that its June passenger loads had declined, with
revenue-passenger miles down 5.8 percent and capacity off 7.3 percent from the
previous year. For the whole second quarter, the airline said revenue-passenger
miles were down 10.5 percent on an 11 percent capacity decrease. The airline
filed for bankruptcy last year, re-emerging March 31 with about 17,000 fewer
workers and scaled-down operations.
U.S. Liquids , which provides services related to liquid waste, said after
Thursday's bell that it had completed its restatement of earnings, reducing
operating income by about $2.1 million over three years.
An Arkansas Supreme Court ruling, announced late in Thursday's trading period,
reversed a labor union verdict and requires Wal-Mart to allow union
representatives to attempt to organize in the retail chain's stores. The United
Food and Commercial Workers union Web site said the ruling overturns a
nationwide injunction against its organizers.

sitze ich wieder vor dem Compi. Eigentlich sollte ich jetzt den Bierhunger stillen, dazu eine schlüpfrige Sendung reinziehen und mich danach in die Pfanne hauen.
Was mache ich? Stelle nutzlose Selbstinfos ins Netz mit der Gewissheit, dass es eigentlich kein Schwein interressiert, aber trotzdem gelesen wird. Phhoooahh.

Dem scheinst Du entschieden entgegenzuhalten. Mich freuts, kann ich doch von Deiner
immensen Datensammlerei profitieren. (Es fehlt eigentlich nur noch die Umsetzung)
Beitragen kann ich so gut wie nichts, ausser Würfelwerfen wird als Indikator beachtet.

Du gibst Dir die Mühe, unzählige Grafiken/Indikatoren ins Thread zu stellen.
Aber ich kann sie nicht richtig deuten.
Du stellst die Infos nicht nur, sondern sie werden von Dir gleich noch "ausgedeutscht".
(welch Wort um diese Uhrzeit)
Anyway, was ich glaube Begriffen zu haben ist, dass man nicht um jeden Preis zu Handelsbeginn bis -schluss dabei sein muss. Die Stärke liegt darin, die Range einigermassen traden zu können.
