Steve, It's just my way of helping out since you and Warren seem to do most of the work. I'm sure there are a lot of lurkers like I was before you helped me out. I certainly don't want to take your job. I listen very carefully to your calls. (OT) I sure wish you could give me some guidance on one that is taking me down this year. I kept chasing this AMES. I'm averaged down to 9.03. Buttttttt it dropped at one point to 4 3/4 today. (about 6 now)I chased this thing down from 28. Hind sight is always 20-20. Wish someone could give me some advice. I'm into it as heavy as I was on the old TBR. Keep up your great work! ART

Worldcom Eyes Tender Offer To Up Stake In Embratel-Estado Dow Jones Newswires SAO PAULO -- Worldcom Inc. (WCOM) is weighing the possibility of tendering an offer for outstanding shares in its Brazilian unit, Embratel Participacoes SA (EMT), a top official from the U.S.-based telecom giant was quoted as saying Friday. Worldcom Brasil president Luis Fernando Rodrigues told the Estado news agency the company doesn't, however, plan to close out Embratel's capital like other groups in the sector have done. Rather, Worldcom simply seeks to increase its stake in the Brazilian long-distance carrier. Worldcom acquired a controlling stake in Embratel in July 1998 as part of the privatization of former Brazilian holding Telebras. The U.S. company has 20% of Embratel's total capital and 51% of all voting, or ordinary, shares Company officials in Brazil and the U.S. weren't immediately available for comment. Embratel preferred shares jumped 3% to close at BRR41.20 Friday, while ordinary shares gained 3% to BRR32.15. The Estado report was released after the market close Friday -By Stephen Wisnefski, Dow Jones Newswires; (5511) 813-1988; stephen.wisnefski@dowjones.com
