Rather than wait for my fascist spreadsheet to tell me I've made
a profit (it's still claiming 1.4% loss :-(), I've decided to use
a bit more creative accounting.  Instead of taking into account
brokerage and stamp duty, I'm just looking at the cost price, 
which basically measures my ability to pick stocks.  And here
are the results...

        profit
may        720
pd         756
bt       -3067 
eml       1368
bhp        936
abc       -423
pmp       -288
mmf       3185

total     3187

So I'm making a $3187 profit.  I'm rich!  I told you it would 
work, didn't I?  And it's a good job I only put 25% of my money
into Pacific Basin, because they did what I expected, and stopped
showing a safe 20-30% gain as soon as I bought them (actually
they stopped doing that about 6 months before I bought them).
Anyway, I'm off to spend $3187 on some of the little luxuries in
life - like soap.  BFN.  Paul.
