Market commentary:

Things will trade down as people have to sell garbage to pay for their year 2001 tax bills, due April 15th. So the market volatility right now is low, but I expect volatility to go higher, with a presumed drop in share prices. The only increase would be if there was a short panic, but I doubt there's a sufficient degree of pessimism in the market to cause this.

So the portfolio will remain mostly in cash, with two very defensive plays in the portfolio.

One of my earlier regrets in this portfolio was selling Energizer. I was right with my idea, but my lack of conviction lead to a substantial amount of gain that I took off the table (i.e. sold at roughly 16, instead of the 24 that it's trading for right now).

Other than that, not much to talk about.
