Mike, you'll notice that the insiders have been selling every share that they acquire through the exercise of options. LU has a consensus of .29 for the current Q and earned .25 last Q with a 14% earnings surprise. I'm not sure about LU, I'm inclined to keep a small position, if I had a bigger one I would sell some and put the money elsewhere. here are the more recent upgrades and downgrades... of course they are often not worth that much, but it takes a bit more courage to upgrade a stock that has had some earnings disappointments in the past year or so. ------------ 11-Jul-00 Salomon Smth Brny Resumed - Neutral 16-Jun-00 Robertson Stephens Reiterated - Buy 07-Jun-00 SG Cowen Reiterated - Buy 01-May-00 ABN AMRO Upgrade Buy Top Pick 28-Apr-00 First Union Sec Initiated - Hold 03-Apr-00 Dresdner Klnwrt Bnsn Initiated - Buy 21-Mar-00 Wasserstein Perella Initiated - Hold 13-Mar-00 Wit SoundView Upgrade Hold Buy 08-Mar-00 AG Edwards Downgrade Buy Accumulate 03-Mar-00 SG Cowen Reiterated - Buy 02-Mar-00 Tucker Anthny Clry Upgrade Accumulate Strong Buy 02-Mar-00 Gruntal & Co Upgrade NT Mkt Performer NT Outperformer 02-Mar-00 Banc of America Sec Upgrade Buy Strong Buy 02-Mar-00 CE Unterberg Towbin Initiated - Buy 01-Mar-00 SG Cowen Upgrade Neutral Buy Mike, I'll send you something via email on LU....
