Poet, This is the kind of news we need -- and we need more of it. I'd like to see some more soft economic numbers, and a settlement in the MSFT case. Good earnings reports seem to have little meaning in this market. Above all, we need to see a more cooperative Fed on the horizon. What the Fed says during its next meeting will be more important than the amount of the hike. I saw some more soft news in this morning's Houston Chronicle. Houston home sales, while still strong, are off a bit from last year. While this could be a blip, if we see this in other cities, and for the next couple of months, I'd be very encouraged. INTCfan
