>>>Maybe we're near a short-term bottom (gg).... Eye of beholder should be factored in :-) Oops SPX just went lower than 2 days ago. Well, everything is oversold... Oh gosh, SPX may be going thru neckline. Gotta run. Thanks. d.

from the Street.com Making Room for Ralph By James J. Cramer 9/28/99 1:40 PM ET Tom Costello squawks the Acampora push-out call just now on CNBC. That's a start. I figure the bookers are furiously trying to put him on for Maria Bartiromo or Ron Insana. Maybe, just maybe they book him for after 4:00 p.m. -- BOORRRINNGGGGG! But to get the maximum Kodiak/Ursine/Polar/Koala/Panda/Ben/Yogi edge, we have to squeeze Ralph into trading hours. Only then, would there be a genuine opportunity to pick up some stocks. For those of you thinking of buying now, why not wait to see if the bookers have some success getting Ralph for this afternoon's CNBC shows. The worst that happens, you miss a temporary bottom. Best that happens, we get a tradeable crescendo courtesy of Acampora's new prediction-of-a-possible-dive-below- 10,000 rap. Kansas to Acampora -- who would have thought it!!

A snippet from Businessweek that mentions Net2Phone; Big brother and the E-Revolution (excerpt) Businesses are waking up to the potential of the Internet. One morning, I meet Xiao Hongfa, a gruff 40-year-old manager for state-owned China Taixing Group, which makes heavy machinery from its factory in Jiangsu province, just outside Shanghai. Five months ago, Xiao began using a local version of Internet telephony operator Net2Phone Inc. to make his international calls. ''I save 90%,'' he marvels. Xiao also is trying to find new customers over the Net, though he admits it's an uphill slog. ''We have received lots of e-mails, but no one has bought from us,'' he says. The Internet ''is not so successful yet because people in China don't have so many computers.'' Good Worden Report, this pm. d.
