Robert: My big fear: (I'm a Capricorn and tend to worry about everything) is that the FED and Alan Greenspan will come to the realization that upping interest rates will not slow ASSET (stock price) inflation...and one day they'll announce that they're upping margin requirements from the current 50% level. This is always in the back of my mind, the reason I hit and run, try to have some shorts on, and trade modest amounts. I sense Mr. Greenspan is getting weary of bumping up rates only to see the market make new highs after new highs. A 10%-20% bump in margin requirements would likely hit the markets hard. (Lee)
