Man, what are these feds thinking? Are they running around with blinders on?? Sheeez.....if they tighten...or heck, even if they do nothing, we are in trouble. We need them to back off, or give us a rate cut, not instill more fear in an already fearful economy. Man, will this year ever end.....and if it does, I wonder if I will be on food stamps or not.

<font color=Red>AFTERHOURS QUOTES Voltaire's Porch Basket of Stocks These Stock Have Not Been Picked By Any One Individual GORILLA--A company that controls it market because it has a discontinuous innovation ,one that is not compatible with existing systems. The market is in a hyper growth stage, and they control the architecture. There is a high switching cost to using some other company's product, KING--The Market leader, properly with a two-times lead or better over its closest competitor. If the lead shrinks too far, the king becomes a prince, and we have a kingless market. Because they lack architectural control, and because switching costs are low, they cannot force competitors onto the defensive the way Microsoft, Intel, or Cisco can. Compaq is a king. Seagate is a king of hard drives. A lot of study has been done on these stocks by the Gorilla and Kings thread.
