NWX - AMEX networking index broke it's neckline today.

207.61.23.98

Still have another 25-30% to shave off which puts CSCO around 30. Still expensive, but probably an acceptable ST bottom for most.

Michael H, I completely agree with what you said in your last post about AG. That's why I'm still very bearish on techs even at these depressed levels.

Separate but related the XAU will probably break the it's downtrend channel tomorrow (or very soon) that it's been in for over a year.

Sorry to all for all these non-oil related posts, but we're entering a critial phase in the tech meltdown that may or may not spill over into our investments. The next 1-3 months will be VERY interesting. Trying to consider all possibilities.

Michael, for what it's worth NG is up .348 to $9.45 on a 30 Min. delay from the close.
Take Care

Those rate cuts were unwise intervention to prevent financial ruin to a number of well-known persons and institutions, including a Nobel laureate or two. And a New York bank and brokerage or two.

Probably, from the Fed's point of view, they were forestalling the Credit Anstadt collapse that set off the crash of 1929 and the Great Depression. That Austrian Bank, in case I spelled it wrong. I think all they did was prolong and exaggerate a credit and speculative bubble.

FWIW, I agree. I think AG and the FED want the market to correct. That would keep the printing press at the US Treasury a little less busy <g>. They were even using the word "recession" in the media today. Things must be really bad <g>.

Mike, I agree with you 100% that Al Gore's job is not to save the market or keep folks from losing money. He has even said so in the past. After the Long Term Capital debacle the Fed made it absolutely clear that they acted to prevent worldwide economic collapse due to a sudden massive unwinding. They specifically said NOT to expect that kind of assistance in the future.
