ToySoldier, I agree for w/ you for once. It is always a question of beating the next guy to the punch - which is why you saw such a peculiar truncated summer rally this July. Morgan

Hmmm. I've been thinking about this scenario for sometime now. I actually sold a lot of calls on Monday and am thinking when I should buy them back. It's a little scary that we might be seeing something the same way :-) Mike

Hi, Toy. I think there's a lot of truth in your analysis. y2k may well be a self fufilling prophesy, and I know some smart investors who plan to profit from the ignorant and uninformed who equate it with Armagaedon. Since this involves a timing model, I won't attempt it. Instead I will stick with my Gorillas and ride out what I hope will be a brief event. It's a little too early for y2k though. Today's sell off is more likely the old "sell the news" scenario. I'm looking for the normal gap filling over the next several days. jmho, Frank
