Does anybody have a good futures page? I have this one which says the naz futures are up but I have no idea how reliable it is. Thanks mrci.com

I believe this decline in the quality names is temporary. Even if it isn't the companies roll along with all the atractiveness they had before. Stock option incentives are problematic, but that sorts out. The best companies tend to keep their employees. Nothing in the service needs to change. The leaders don't need financing for quite a while, several are cash-flow positive, and they all will still command a premium stock price in the sector which gives them acquisition effectiveness. The strong only get stronger in a weak environment.
