Jim and all,

may be we should think about a few future events and how it will influence the market. (estimated time in CAPS)

1. Yen is an eyelash away from 145 again. Worry sign out, when will panic button be depressed? WITHIN 3 MONTHS.

2. HK$ has been under attack since last week. HS index close to 7000 again after recovering to over 8000. Will the peg hold? COULD BE NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS.

3. China has problems coming out of the yin yang. Natural disaster certainly not helping. Jiang and Zhu reform plans now appear to be more ambitious than ever. 8% target growth is against all odds. Will the RMB fall this year or next? Or will they just quietly print more money? ANY TIME DEPENDS ON 1 AND 2 ABOVE.

4. Japan has no plans. Jesse hit the nail of the head months ago. There are no leaders in Japan astute in economics and powerful enough to lead them to salvation. The economy will spiral down as the yen falls. SEPTEMBER - WHEN BANK AUDITS COMPLETED.

5. Korea is probably bankrupt technically. Next year will be judgement day when short term debt comes due again. SIX MONTHS.

6. The rest of Asia is relatively insignificant individually. In the aggregate, they do add up. Indonesia is hopeless. Others may follow. IMF is out of money to bail them out even if politically and economically feasible. TOMORROW.

With all these land mines ahead, I sure like to have the optimism the likes of Joe Bartaglia of Gruntal possesses.
