I have maintained since Aug97 birth of Asian Meltdown that the central risk to western economies is DEFLATION wage pressure will do nothing to change this huge effect such wage pressures are in pockets, certain sectors, certain countries money supply overflows will only satisfy dollarization of foreign unstable economies the United States economy is now a veritable North American economy, with Mexico a bluecollar state, and Canada a state with rich resources and many high skilled laborers the reawakening of the many emerging economies recovering from submerged status, this will only temporarily put price pressure on certain critical commodities such as oil, metals, lumber a couple billion formerly communist workers got dumped on the free world, suppressing wage costs technology continues to provide big pressures downward on wages and downward on product prices the deflationary forces are not gone, only temporarily quiet Greenspan might realize it I am less sure that you are man oh man, is QCOM asleep looking inside or what? do you see any sizeable open interest on the put side? a rally from upper 130's toward mid-140's wont sate my appetite by Friday, CrackerMan your back might need what does the trick for me a woman whose weight ranges between 120-135 walks on your back does it every time for me, usually after a ski outing / jim
