Bill, will certainly keep your overall bearish sentiment in mind, especially since you were correct when you called the bullish trend a while back. What are the reasons behind your bearish outlook?

Dear Bill: Is your market bearishness merely short term (3-6 mos) or something more longer term in nature. Personally, I am thinking that 2,000 and beyond ought to be good for technology. Any slowdown caused by y2k will be behind us and companies ought to be very interested in continuing to increase productivity. On top of that, should be a more favorable tax climate for investments, and there is always all that Pension and mutual fund money that MUST be invested somewhere. Dont think Bonds will do it. JDN

Bill, Interesting that you're turning on Net stocks too. I've been getting that feeling since the AMZN announcement a couple of weeks ago. The hype just isn't working anymore. This morning, Cramer turned too. thestreet.com My own take: Most fads can't last more than two-three years. We're hitting that point with the net. And I believe that the speculative stocks which have led the market up will lead it down as well. I guess there'll just be a few less billionaires at my gym... mg
