Hi Bill
Ever been quoted out of context?

But some Wall Street analysts
argue that many of the "New Economy" companies
of the Nasdaq don't have debt on their books, and
because of that they aren't affected by rising interest
rates.

"Why should they borrow money when they can tap
the equity markets [through an initial public offering]
for free," Mr. Meehan said. Secondly, some analysts
argue that the juiced-up earnings potential of
technology stocks relative to other stocks will
overcome higher rates.


Almost fell off the crapper when I saw this.<G>
