Warning, Will Robinson! Warning!

I may be showing my age a little here, but that's the phrase heard quite often from the old '60's TV show "Lost In Space." Who was famous for uttering the phrase?

It came from The Robot.

The Robot had no name, but was a Model B-9, Class M-3 General Utility Non-Theorizing Environmental Control Robot.

Pretty cool, for that time period.

Anyway, I immediately thought of that phrase uttered by The Robot when I read a recent article entitled "Remote patrol can net intruder."

Seems there's this new robot developed by a Japanese venture firm and a security company that can be commanded from a cell phone to throw a net to trap suspected intruders.

The robot can also capture video images of the intruders and send the video to the owner's cell phone. The owner can even tell the robot to chase the intruders! And the owner can even make the robot "talk" by speaking through a microphone.

Imagine the intruders shock and awe at that prospect. Bet they never hit THAT house again!

The robot will cost under $5,600.

So what does that have to do with the stock market?

I don't have a clue, but thought this was just a little funny.

Anyway, the market was a roller coaster again today, with the Dow giving up triple-digit returns to end up just 38.47. The Nasdaq did a little better percentage-wise, up 12.17.

A few stocks looking good right now are SYNA (up nicely off a Doji from Friday), FRPT (which might be about to take off again), and CENTA (nice recent relative strength there for sure).

Golds are still ultra-strong, with MDW looking "not overbought" there.

But I'm about to name a bombed-out stock in the Retail sector for my paying Members that "rose from the dead" today over 40% on huge volume, and could have much more upside in store.
