Shame on you for not checking your number of shares of Yaacov. WCOM had a 3:2 split recently <ggg>.

Hello Yaacov. I was in bad shape since earlier this afternoon. My cable went out and I could not get onto the net. (It had nothing to do with my cable TV) So I listened to some analyst on the radio giving his schmear. He had down, down on his mind and would not touch the financials yet with a ten foot pole. He sees some downturn in the stocks that have risen a lot. Same old thing. He got me so up tight that I started buying some internet stocks which he knocked also. gg. I am just now checking to see what went on with some of my stocks, including WCOM. But I can guess what happened to WCOM. gg. Same thing that happened to most of my stocks. Oh, wait a sec. 30%? WCOM split 3 for 2. You had me worried for a second. I have not yet checked all of my stocks. Yes. A.G. has been renominated. You would think everybody is happy. But wait. No. The market is blaming A.G. partly for this market down turn. The market was flooded with money because of Y2K worry. Now guess what? It was a big yawn and the GVT is taking all the extra liquidity out of the market, that should make money supply a bit tighter and then everybody of course is absolutely sure that the FED will raise rates at their next meeting in FEB. You know, all those guys with their crystal balls. They could be right. You GOT to raise rates when there is NO inflation!!! I guess you read my post about delayed profit taking since you don't have to pay cap.gains taxes here until next year. Like I mentioned to you before. We are not as lucky as you over there. OK, that's about it with my commentary. gg. I bought into EXDS and SCOC yesterday. Ouch. And I bought QCOM and JDSU today. I fared a bit better on the last 2 stocks. One was up a bit and JDSU down about 8. Oh; forgot. I also bought 100 sh. of CMRC around 212. I am sure my discount broker thought I was nuts. He kept asking me: You did say you are buying? I said yes. I don't have any of those stocks to sell gg, so I have to buy. I don't go short. Hm. Globex is down again tonight. Sonny
