Llama: Are you still looking at the steel sector? If so, you should know that the Feds are now requiring that any construction performed with Federal monies(that's US Maurice) must have materials measured and delivered under the metric system. This is being phased in over a period of time...steel is first. My steel freinds (as opposed to steal friends, who I also call employees), tell me that almost no one had geared up to fabricate steel in metric. Consequently, there are a handful of small, privately owned, steel fabricating firms that are cleaning up this summer. Your mission, Mr. Weiss, should you choose to accept it, is to find relatively small, publicly held steel firms who are in a position to produce metric in quantity, much of which is now coming from.....yes our old enemy from the War of 1812, the moose-huggers. Should you be caught or captured, Hillary will send Arkansas State Troopers to your wooded retreat.

Since I'm speaking of "sectors", what's wrong with the energies? Interesting little ditties....Parker Drilling (CDN) and First Mississippi (FRM - NYSE). I would do this myself, but as you know, I'm awaiting the market crash, and the general decline of the western world...thereby increasing the value of my now stagnent gold options.

In further news, Ziggy Zen Master assumed a postion between the carport and the fish pond and proceede to lay out in the rain. This AM, palladium fell almost $3 in early trading. I think I've isolated a sector/location/market function....film at 11:00.
