The added liquidity has really moved the small caps, at least the ones that haven't had to warn. The Fed has done as well as can be expected, and probably better than many expected, in the aftermath of the bubble. I think a big key here is psychology in the board room. Our Chamber of Commerce president is really pounding the table for our companies to keep upgrading their technology so they will stay competitive with the rest of the world. This, IMO, is the message that needs to come across, NOT this bunker mentality, capex freeze that so many companies are doing. Yes, the Fed has done its part, or at least most of it. Now we just have to break this cost-cutting mantra and encourage companies to invest in their equipment, and their people, like they had been. I think they will. Because sooner or later, they have to. All just my opinion, of course. PB

Then as the economy stabilizes and starts to turn, the FED will go to neutral. ....... as the cycle completes itself. Well put.

More unrest in Nepal............ Monday, June 11, 2001 Tiger Shot Dead After Killing 5 People KATHMANDU (Reuters) - A Royal Bengal tiger was shot dead at a national park in southern Nepal after killing five people in a week, a wildlife official said Monday. The tiger was shot dead last Thursday after the attacks that occurred between May 31 and June 6 in villages neighboring the Royal Chitaun National Park, park official Bed Kumar Dhakal said. The park lies 150 km (90 miles) south of the Himalayan kingdom's capital. "The tiger seemed to have recently turned into a man-eater," Dhakal told Reuters. There are between 5,000 and 6,000 Royal Bengal tigers in the world, wildlife authorities estimate. The tiger's coat ranges in color from brownish yellow to orange-red and is marked by black stripes. India is believed to have the largest number of Royal Bengal tigers with about 3,000, Bangladesh has between 300 and 400 while Nepal has between 150 and 200, wildlife authorities say.
