Can you tell me what has happened the short end of the yield curve today. It has got to be related to Y2K liquidity injections.

Mike, I found your recent lists of put candidates very instructive. In my view, the ripest candidate now is HWP. It appears to be topping out, and it probably wouldn't hurt to take an opening position.

I'm looking at Feb. or March (probably Feb.) 100's or 105's. Which month and strike are you favoring?

Thanks,

Marc

"...Yes, the nation was riding high, but in 1929 it came apart, in the words of the French economist Francois Quesnay, "like a club sandwich without toothpicks" when the Stock Market crashed because of rumors that there would be no such thing as the Internet for more than 50 years. The nation was plunged into the Great Depression, which resulted in joblessness, homelessness, poverty, hunger and literally millions of Shirley Temple movies, traces of which can still be seen today. In desperation, the nation turned to Franklin Delano "Teddy" Roosevelt, who in 1933 started the New Deal, a group of massive government programs designed to guarantee Americans that they would never again be without massive government programs...."

Regards, Don

When I was growing up, my mother had a friend who called the county phone book "The Franklin County Social Register."

Incidentally, this lady, who is still alive, though in parlous condition I hear, is John Templeton's sister-in-law.
