Hi Tony, RE: "for little inflationary threat "

In Silicon Valley, the inflationary threat looked rather solid:

- local office leases were up significantly (for those companies that didn't lock-in LT leases)
- local rentals were up 40% in June-00 from Jan-00
- local housing jumped about 40% from April-99 to April-00
- NCG salaries were increasing significantly (labor was tight)
- last month PGE announced a 50% increase in gas & elec
- this month PGE announced a desire to increase another 10 to 15%

However, agreed, the economy had suddenly hit a cliff and the interest rate increases from last year were too severe.

Regards,
Amy J
