Hello B. OFF Topic You asked me a question on how your investing could be influenced by EMU. In today's WSJ there are 2 articles that answer this quite well. Page A13 -- Society General Shares Rise - on talk of consolidation of european banking. There are certain to be significant longterm benefits to the banking structure of europe. There must be a mutual fund that is tuned into this prospect for capital return. Page C1 -- European Stocks Jump on Euro Euphoria - Since January 98 Portugal is up 47% - Italy up 43% - Spain up 40% - Finland 31% - etc. Here again....by being aware of the Macro economic opportunities, one can participate in speculation. In principle it is not so different then waiting for SIR to find gas....there's speculation cycles and then fundamental growth cycles if something is for real. I would expect this ECU speculation to continue until shortly after the EMI meeting some time in May and then sell-off on profit taking. Then go forward in a slow progression of growth spurts. By being positioned early you could take advantaage of both the speculation and the long-term prospect of a powerful emerging economic condition. Here again there must be mutual funds for the beginning investor. I would also check out any available WEBS for these foreign indexs and also individual ADRs' for companies. If you type WEBS into the search box at the bottom of this page you will be rewarded. This is not a recomendation to purchase anything, but an example of early investing in speculative and perhaps rewarding shifts in world economics. BWDIK Chip
