Hello Rob v!
Hey! How 'bout those Raptors! Go Lenny! The Blue Jays did alright tonight too... The Mariners haven't lost a series so far.
Anyhow, here a little something of interest:
On Wall Street, though, the pessimists are winning. Spurred on by the well-publicized failures of Northpoint and Winstar, two widely--followed-and hugely leveraged--new-era telecom providers, investors have fled the whole new telecom sector. Prices, stocks, and bonds alike are stuck in distressed territory.
Consider that an opportunity. Because at crunch times like now, market dynamics cause the good to be lumped indiscriminately with the bad and the ugly. When bond and stock mutual funds are hit with panic-mode redemptions---as they have been for much of the past year or so--portfolio managers don't have the luxury of drawing fine distinctions between, say, flawed-business-plan CLECs on the one hand, and aggressive, well-managed next generation IP carriers--say, Global Crossing--on the other. They sell what they can, and prices fall across an entire sector. That's when opportunity knocks.
Let's pray that 360 Networks is one hell of an opportunity too!
