Figures worth pondering, if true: Message 13343598 I guess we wait and see if the Nasdaq losses are converted to permanent losses of buying power through margin calls. I guess on average a margin account heavy in NAZ stocks might still have around 35% or better equity in it. Some brokerages require 30% or more equity and as we all know the requirements can be a lot higher on some volatile stocks. It might take another 5% down on average in the NAZ to send itself over the edge. Just a few estimates using nothing more than a few figures, a few pieces of information, and a hand-held calculator.

Mike, Considering the numbskulls wrote about 2000 articles trashing Warren Buffett for not owning nasdaq stocks do you think they'll write a least one saying he was right again and that maybe 50 years of doing well wasn't an accident? Wayne
