I have been thinking about this phenom for awhile now. I have not read Dent's book( though I will be sure to pick up a copy) but I have some ideas about what will be moved by the bulge. Retirement sensitive stocks including... financial institutions that have a high proportion of their operations in 401K and IRA customers. Leisure providers that have large percentage of the business from the younger retirees. Healthcare and real estate providers in the high senior concentration areas of the country (FL, CA, AZ, TX...) Grandma and Grandpa need to visit the grandkids. Invest in discount airlines. High Tech is in. All of the baby boomers will want computers and high speed connections to the net. Hey, so do I. The difference is that they will have the money to do it. Invest in computer related issues, COMPAQ, DELL, IBM, QNTM, WDC, SEG. Invest in networking stocks COMS and Cisco. Software providers are riskier. Too much volatility for my tastes, except MSFT. Try INTEL, and some of the potential content providers. What else? Medical stocks? Johnson & Johnson? Hmmm.. The list grows. Richard
