Hi Ike: What's your opinion on interest rates? I've posted I expect the long rate to drop while the FED may actually raise soon. We can have the short rate higher than the long. OIL and comodity prices continue to slip downward. Pricing pressure is going strong (keeping basic costs down) in manufacturing and financial services. This is being recognized by the market but the long rate still has room to run down. From a TA perspective I'm not sure how far but 5.5 % is not far away and even breaking 5.8% will push this rally higher. Not sure what this means for the semi's but the economy is still going great guns in CT and this was one of the states to stay in recession the longest and will feel a slow down early. On OJ's post I'm not sure about China but Japan can have some issues after March (then again they've pushed there problems out this far and if they can continue for another decade they'll be able to grow out of their problems). How is Europe? Indications here are things are picking up (i.e. US exports). Hope all is well. I now have to go back to tax returns <gg>. Tim
