*** TRADING IDEA ITEMS (There will be no followup on these ideas): *** 

   Breakouts (The following stock(s) have excellent sales and earnings growth, 
   and have just broken out from a six-week or longer base.): 
      * J C Penney Co. Inc. (NYSE: JCP, $80.88) 
	EPS:84, RS:59, GR:82->84, PE:13, Retail-Major Department Stores 

   Climactic Selloff/Rebounds (The following stock(s) have excellent sales and 
   earnings growth, are in long-term uptrends, and have just had a climactic 
   selloff-and-rebound.): 
      * Adaptec Inc. (NASDAQ: ADPT, $25.25) 
        EPS:99, RS:69, GR:12->14, PE:15, Computer-Peripheral Equipment 

 
Cagles, Inc. 

   I made a double-digit profit on my first purchase of Cagles in one month's 
time.  My second purchase (200 shares in each account at 28 3/8) is slightly 
underwater.  I am still very bullish on Cagles; I still expect to make a 
profit on this second purchase. 
   However, my accounts are still much too exposed right now, given my 
recent shift to a bearish stance on Feb. 17 (Vol.2 #30).  As I have written 
before, my market timing program gives a market sell signal about once a year. 
When it does, my goal is no longer a "double-digit profit in one to four 
months" for the stocks I bought prior to the sell signal; my goal becomes 
"preservation of capital".  I'd rather be in cash at this time.
