Slow day for news, but here are a few releases that may be of interest: Upside's Richard Brandt gives 2001 predictions: upside.com 1. Tech stocks will come roaring back. Not a "growth recession" or a modest recovery or even a "soft landing," but a big, full-throated, non-wimpy roar!

But if Greenspan and a tech stock disaster can drive the world to the edge of recession, Greenspan and a recovering tech industry can bring us back. Interest rates will drop, people will start buying tech stocks that have over-corrected, VCs will start spending some of that mountain of cash they have tucked under their butts, consumer confidence will grow, retailing will pick up, people will start buying PCs again and – boom! – like a 280-pound Hell’s Angel hitting the kick-starter on a newly restored Harley.
