<The investors have already been squeezed. Crushed, actually.>

What I want to know is how the Balanced Budget, balanced upon the massive tax receipts for capital gains the last few years, will fare now that these have disappeared? And potentially disappeared until April 2002, yes 2002, should the vast majority of small investors not have to make estimated tax payments all next year.

"His persistant attacks on inflation are leading us towards a RECESSION."

I don't claim to be Nostradamus nor do I read Tarot cards, but the writing on the wall seemed pretty clear to me when I first made that statement back in May.

The economic indicators to officially call this a recession may not be fully satisfied yet but in the minds of investors the recession has already began. IMO, that is the most important indicator of all. Thank you Mister G.
