NEW YORK, NY. (August 14): It's a disappointing day when all three market
averaged post gains and your own portfolio slips backwards, but that's exactly
what happened to the Foolish Four today.
Interestingly, the only news was good news, as DuPont was added to PaineWebber's
Private Client Focus List.
Oh well, that's the way investing goes. You smile at the victories (read
the IFG report tonight) and groan with the losses, but at the end of the
year, the goal is to be on top more often than not. The Dow approach'll get
you there. Fool on!
