Sonny ---Good Morning ----Sunny back here in the east .
Some thoughts on the oil issue :
1)OPEC is not shipping the oil and they are behind the speculation in the market place making a win fall either way . Prices are going up ---make money ----dump oil on the market ---short energy prices ---does not sound that far fetch
2) OPEC plays around with the supply and let's the Industrialized nations have a cold winter with no heating oil ---would be the best thing that ever happen to us ---would force who ever is President to resolved the issue .
3)Their is no oil shortage ---as prices go up the less developed countries cannot afford it so their is more supply in the market place thus the prices are being artificially inflated much like the silver issue in 1980
---will come crashing down
Any of the above could be taken place at present ---I do not believed the world is using that much energy especially since the US has cut it energy usage in half over the last fifteenth years .
I still cannot believed Bush is not hammering Gore over this issue ---big time . If Gore is elected he will raise gas taxes to the levels very much like Europe in order to reduce consumption instead of developing a new fuel source .

BEST WISHES
BILL
PS --- The reason the market is being hammered is that it went up on light volume in August and the shorts were taken their position to hammer it before options expiration on Friday this week . After that the big boys will come back in and say everything is okay ---lets have a Fall rally ---just my two cents .

Hi Sonny,

Any idea what is happening to the market? I sold my last of
MRKs and G's today and bought SUNW at under 113 and intc at
61 3/4. I had been keeping MRK and G since mid-80's and both stocks were representing parked capital. I beleive INTC and SUNW at these prices are attractive and have more chances of upside move than the MRK and G!! G in partiuclar is pretty much dead. What do think?

Kind regards

Yaacov
