Tom, except for 43-60, I missed most of icge too. And I think it's perfectly appropriate to be spooked by interest rates. After all, the market today could have tanked just as much as it rallied, had a single stat been just a little different. And who can predict that?? Not even Greenspam himself. So my strategy is to only invest as much as I am willing to lose. And that's a lot less than it was in April. Doubling my net worth would really not impact my lifestyle that much, whereas halving my net worth would. Thus, capital preservation is objective #1 for me right now. Good luck. Rob
