Beni2 Mick Mormony re: subscription to the Louis Rukeyser's Wall Street newsletter.

I enjoyed reading the newsletter and would highly recommend reading it as it provides a breath of sanity to the media version of AG's speeches, " The guy's just having some fun and clueless as to future policy."

For those Dell investors (like me) who find that their resolve to hold Dell long term weakens during six months of roller coaster price movement with little growth, this advice was also welcome as it applies to Dell: "The recent revival of interest in such old favorites as Intel, which has again awakened from a six-month slumber (as is its wont), emphasizes the importance of not being faked out of core holdings because of a transient perceived change in the market's moods."

I think that these last two years of investing after retirement has provided the needed seasoning to deal with transients and media hype over AG's latest repeat of the obvious.
Cheers
Mike

Re: "Louis Rukeyser's Wall Street newsletter."

I agree about the newsletter but not about the article on Greenspan. For instance Mr. Rukeyser suggest that the news is printing that which "isn't newsworthy" with it's "Fed chairman says it's important to stay ahead of possible inflationary pressure" because it is prudent stance for FED official to take.

Well let us bring this to our own jobs and everyday life. Although we all know what our duties are as well as our bosses, what do you suppose would be the reaction if out of the clear blue you stood up and professed those duties when one of your bosses was passing by? I would guess his first reaction may be "Yes that's correct your right" But then he may ask himself -or you, "Has something gone wrong? Is there something I should know about, is everything alright? IS THERE SOMETHING MORE I NEED TO KNOW?" ---No, you state, "I was just making sure you know that it is my job to fix and correct anything that brakes or goes wrong around here so long as you have the money to get it fixed and pay me with the proper increases every so often"

Mr. Greenspan is playing that game that a guilty child plays when they say to the unsuspecting parent who just enters a room; "Mommy I didn't break the "---" "... then the parent eventually finds the broken item and their setback... just like us everytime Mr. Greenspan make's his statement resoundingly NEWSWORTHY when he actually raises rates!

No Mr. Rukeyser I resoundingly disagree that when the press quotes Mr. Greenspan making public statements no matter how common to his duties they are newsworthy and they do effect our investments and they are meant to by the contriving articulate and ever omnipotent head of the non-answerable Federal Reserve Board.
