How many of you have followed the Motley Fool's rule makers and rule breakers?

Cramer's best of breed approach is obviously the same as the Rule Maker concept.

You can make a lot more money with Rule Breakers than Rule Makers, but the risk is much higher. In the past I have been lucky enough to make some big big BIG money off of Rule Breakers, but today I don't see too many interesting Rule Breakers.

Do people have any hot Rule Breaker stocks?

If so are they in the hot sectors (healthcare, tech, etc.)?

Can you give us a definition of what it means to be a rule breaker?

I think the biggest difference between the Motley Fool philosophy and Cramer's is the Fool tells you to hold stocks for a long time, Cramer has a more short-term view. In fact, just last night he said he didn't believe in 'buy and hold'.

Can you give us a definition of what it means to be a rule breaker?

I guess the best way to describe it is a stock that does well because it doesn't play by the rules. Think something innovative like ebay.

Would Constellation Brands qualify with all their acquisitions? They keep getting hammered for doing them, but they keep on growing.
