Very Interesting to have SSB raise the target now, considering the recent downgrade and their part in the bond buyback as well as options expiration. I like this * Given the better profit outlook, we are raising our fully-taxed EPS from $3.88 to $4.23; reported EPS (with the last 3 quarters at 20% tax rate) are reduced from $5.50 to $5.29, while 2001 goes from $5.00 to $5.50. Predictions for 2001 that are above 2000. I think the estimates are low but it looks better to see predictions of future year on year increases. Tim
