Hank, I wouldn't mind that. I'm mostly in a small Canadian biotech right now with a recently approved Arthritis cream in Europe. Not sexy; but, its now coming to a multi Billion dollar market which isn't subject to economic cycles and is growing in double digits. They're planning on listing on NASDAQ in 2001, and are apparently close to signing a distribution partner. It's DMX on the TSE in Toronto. I know a lot of people flog their favorite stocks and I readily admit I'm in love with this one. Good luck with the 19th. Wolf

I agree totally with your thinking, but dont share your respect for the FedGovernors they are a hidebound crosseyed bunch relying on old faulty constructs and methods yes, energy higher prices have been earnings recessionary via tax proxy money supply is key, imo it has been rising slightly to offset the Fed tightening effect it would be unprecedented to go from tight bias in Nov to cutting even by 25bpt in Dec I agree that Greenspoon's speech was a midterm move to neutral if he planned to cut in Dec, he needed to go neutral prior I hear half the govs are really concerned but honestly, these guys are economic screwballs they start with a premise and look to defend it until it is indefensible first, they must lose their inflationary nonsensical premise second, they must notice the threat to the economy third, they must lose their pride fourth, they must cut rates (we are at stage #3 now) I personally believe the best bet in the last four weeks was going long the Euro Futures contract I spoke of it to RR on VoltPorch back in early Nov when trading at 83 it is now 93 in futures terms, that is about a 400% gain by the way, FedFunds Futures pegs a Dec19th 25bpt cut at 40% / jim
