Pancho.

For those who have access to Barrons, the following in this weeks issue are very good articles that warn of the high stock price valuations. I have pasted a few snipperts from the first article.

>>Together, Microsoft, Intel and Cisco contribute nearly half a trillion of the roughly $2 trillion in Nasdaq's total market value.

They account for 59% of the total earnings of the Nasdaq composite. Which means, of course, that the other 5,449 companies in the index chip in only 41%.

.from the bottom in October 1990 through the end of the first quarter of 1998, the market value of the Nasdaq Composite expanded by 655% on a 114% gain in earnings. Even more strikingly, from January 31, 1995, through March 31, 1998, the index's market value rose by 169% on an increase in earnings of just 15%.>>
