Well, Tip, today's action took away all gains from
AG's "rate reduction" rally. Now we're only 233 pts
away from the Sep.1 low on the morning following Aug.31's
512 pt. decline. Let's watch once more for foreign
market cues. I'm actually somewhat surprised we're
only down 2.7% today.

In contrast, NASDAQ down 4.8%, Brazil down 9.6%,
Mexico down 5.3%, Germany down 7.6%.

With the Nikkei only 1.5% away from cracking 13,000 on
the downside and Hong Kong returning from a holiday,
tonight will be very interesting. PPT's vs. motivated
sellers perhaps??? I agree with JG...the dipsters may
finally be out of money or have it all tucked safely
in T-bonds to not emerge until capitulation by the bulls.

As for Christmas, consumers likely to cut back just as
businesses are on capital equipment expd.. More important than
this Christmas may be the childrens' college fund, decimated
through greed and ignorance, especially if we continue down
the worst-case-scenario path.

FWIW, I am beginning to see some value in a few battered
tech.stocks that still have apparently hi acid test ratios.
But I can afford to wait as the macro-financial environment
settles down over the next 3 to 9 months.
