Remember...'Al Sleet here, your hippie dippie weather forecaster. Today will be light out until later in the day when it will grow gradually darker, progressing to a period of total darkness that will last until dawn. This will give way to gradually increasing brightness that will progress to bright daylight and again last the entire day. This trend should continue for the next several million years.
This spring it will be warm. This will be followed by a period of increasing warmth and hot weather in the summer. That will be followed by a gradual cooling trend until winter when it will be cold. This trend should also continue for the next several million years.
Looking at the radar, I see a line of thunderstorms extending from Hobboken N.J., northeast out across Long Island, but what's this? The radar also shows a line of incoming Russian ICBM's so, a, I wouldn't sweat the thunderstorms folks.'

Shorten the trends, substitute the market and you have the crystal ball...look outside and see what it is doing, know the general tendencies and you have something to take to the bank. Even the nukes fits, you can't take it with you and they say in the end it's the blink of an eye.
I believe it went up today because Mr. Case loaded up on his shares of @home. How many million do you think he owns?
Last week I saw Blodgett from ML interviewed on Bloomberg. He'd tout Vader for ruler of the planet if he saw money in it. Too self-pumped and prejudiced for my liking. Touted as the hero who called the internet plays. He called AOL as a rise to what $75? That is the reason AOL is rising. It only needs a rec. from one of the lords of the underworld then others jump on with their upgrades and hey, instant party, instant big bucks. They love this stock...it has BRAND RECOGNITION most definately. And with these money hounds on the gravy train, it is their cash cow. I suppose the best we can hope for is that with time the same hype and recognition may come our way. |
