Yes, definitely on the market generally, because of psychology mainly, but I strongly doubt that a further slowdown/fallout in Brazil and LatAm will seriously dent into RATL sales in the old world.

LatAm is not where the big growth is for RATL _at_this_time_. Mind you, it may well become important one day, but these days, the sell to cos. based in old world. Besides, they produced their splendid results despite Asian, Japanese and Russian crises over the last year.

I'm not concerned for RATL biz at all at this time, but if I was a C or MER or AXP shareholder, I'd be concerned indeed about more troubles ahead in their biz.

Forget RATL being a hold (as I said earlier): I will use any weakness (to low $20s for example) to accumulate more RATL shares.

kind regards,
Thomas
