[15:52 ET Internet Stocks sector could be in for a bumpy ride should the SEC tighten up margin restriction; according to Salomon Smith Barney, tighter restrictions could be announced soon.]

Steve,

Any truth to this rumor that you're aware of? In the past, what
has been the Fed change... to 75%? Apparently it is aimed at just
Nasdaq internet stocks.

Also, is there a section within the brokerage houses that can use
10 to 1 margin while day-trading in their stock accounts?

Thanks, nick
