George Cole. I finally realized where the money for more Health Care is going to come from. Your post just lighted a lightbulb: From The Old Economy. Makes every sense. Look, ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ they have the most cashflow ( GM &Ford; MSFT and INTC tooÿsince they ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ can now be considered old economy too). ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ btw my definition of Old Economy stock is ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ a stock that hasn't done a lot in a while; ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ ie, no 10% moves up/day ) ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ the most value or valuable? so theoreticallyÿ ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ we can squeeze the most juice out off. ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ A lot of these Old Economy stocks are actually responsible for the bad ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ state healthcare is going to if you thinkÿÿÿÿ ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ about it ( tax free healthgiveawaya maniaÿ firstÿ ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ then HMOÿÿ gloom and doom ). ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ They might as well come up with the cash to fix it. ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ Serves them right as far as I am concerned. ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ We've had no use for them in all this bull market. This will give them at least ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ a socially usefull purpose to exist, until ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ their eventual death that is when The New Econmy ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ takes completely over. ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ It is sort of a nice way to spend your lastÿ ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ days in a Nursing Home.ÿÿÿÿ ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ you can't get any money from the New Economy anyway since all they canÿÿÿÿ ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ give away is more debt. ( ask AMZN if you don't believe me ) ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ And Medicare already has enough debt as it is. ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ ( To be technically correct, in fact, ALL of Medicareÿ ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ is just one giant debt; IOUs to the unborn ). ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ I think the above plan may even help soothe any frictions that may have arisen lately between Alan and Andrea as a result of how to define a bubble. Only problem I see is that you areÿ only short term bullish. Howÿ long is short term? Do we have time to fix healthcare before.............? before ...what......? TA Message #43442 from George S. Cole at Mar 17 2000 10:00AM ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ Haim: ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ My short-term bullish call on the old economy has been vindicated beyond my wildest expectations. ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ At the same time the manic nature of this rally and the huge ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ increase in volatility generally has made me even more bearish medium and longer term. ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ The current market action increasingly resembles what happened in 1929 leading up to the crash.ÿ ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ Dow 11000 looks pretty certain and a run to new highs would ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ not surprise me. ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ But looking beyond that I am quite confident that recent lows will be broken decisively before very long.ÿ ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ Good commentary on the huge debt buildup and manic market action atÿ ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ contraryinvestor.com; ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ One thing for sure. Whether old economy or new economy the current market has very little to doÿ ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ with investing and everything to do with gambling, wild ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ speculation, and gross manipulation.
