Good morning Frank. wow, what a volatile market today. But nothing to get bend out of shape over it. The numbers this morning were mixed, one real good and the retails a little higher. I don't really know the fuss about the retail numbers. I have not heard anyone comparing this number with the numbers from last year at this time. Give me a break. After months of slow retail sales, what do they expect? Everybody is getting ready for school and people are on vacation and buy things to go away with. I don't know about you, but when I am on vacation, I spend more for pleasure than I do all year. Soooo, voila, retail sales up. A couple more days of numbers and we might be on the way up again in the market. Right now it seems like the big fellows who are in, are taking some profits and the ones who stayed more on the sidelines, are picking the stocks up when they fall in order to get in. I believe the bull is still intact, maybe a little tired right now in all that heat,ggg, but nevertheless, still here. We will hit that 10,000 at one point and all this will be forgotten. The net seems to be very busy this morning. It's sl ow. Btw, one of those articles about Intel was real good. Only the one that mentioned that the Merced could be possibly copied, if the patent falls in the "wrong" hands, was a little worrysome. Maybe Intel will get the patents in that auction. We would not want anyone sharing this technology.
