Airlines: for a while it has seemed that Airlines were a very undervalued sector. Business has been good, but the rising fuel syndrom has 1. cut airlines profits, and 2. dampened investor enthusiasm. One of the oldest adages of investing is that airline stocks go down when fuel goes up. Been a pretty consistent one too. Now, with UAL's stunning CASH offer for U (USAIR), all this may change, and in a hurry. Here is a chart of the major airlines: quote.yahoo.com UAL, AMR and DAL are the Big Three of airlines, though LUV (southwest air) has the largest market cap. NWAC and ALK are screaming take-over candidates to me, following UAL's purchase. AMR and DAL will feel tremendous pressure to buy another airline. CAL still has a lot of problems, but also could become a takeover candidate. there are a number of much smaller airlines: biz.yahoo.com. if anyone sees any strong candidates there, would appreciate mention. Think NWAC and ALK will see sustained upward movement for the next few weeks, and could be a good source of tech $$. Other strong sectors included regional banking and insurance. larry
