A woman I know at the place I consult just sat with me for 20 minutes talking about this. She was an investment banker. She said analysts are saying we need 3 rate hikes in the next quarter alone, and that the Fed's first (next) hike might be .50. That they were waiting until Y2K and now are going to crack down. She certainly knows enough people in the business. A .50 rate hike could careen us in the wrong direction.

I don't know, am going to post this on several threads. Numbers come out Friday. I'm considering taking some profits on my JDSU calls and keeping the cash for a major correction.

Any thoughts anyone? t2?

is this the party that Mr. Greenman just cannot stop?
This is a rolling block party, that's why it's hard to stop. You start with a computer party, that fires up an internet party, as soon as the first one dies down a new bandwith party starts across the hall. Now the TV folks are getting chips and filling the punch bowl. One new digital technology creates the environment for another new technology. It won't stop until people run out of ideas.
