Hey KIS - aint ya watching Pitt right now - i feel better already. New initiatives and proposals all in the works for better disclosure. I am sure he and the SEC will make all the right noises and soon we will see some mid level Enron managers in handcuffs to prove their committment to "justice"!

Nice to see what wasn't said ... don't curse the slanted, lying folks in the media. Instead thank them KIS >>Market Update Add to My Yahoo! ADVERTISEMENT Close: You name the sector and it's probably down. The market has been on the defensive since the opening bell. A number of downgrades, talk of SEC investigations, accounting concerns weighed on the market today. The WSJ highlighted concerns in both Tyco (TYC 29.90 -5.73) and Amazon (AMZN 12.53 -1.20). Enterasys (ETS 4.20 -6.60, -61%) announced a review of Asia/Pacific revenue recognition and said the SEC is investigating; Elan (ELN -50%) is a recent accounting worry and considerably lowered EPS estimates.The semi equipment sector was lower, but did better than most tech sectors. While an industry report was not bullish, a number of firms upgraded the major names in the group ahead of Applied Materials (AMAT 43.98 +1.03) report next week. The semiconductors weighed on the Semi Index (SOX 545.21 -7.66): GNSS -8%, VTSS -8%. The biotechs were very weak today on accounting concerns at Cephalon (CEPH -13%) MYGN -11%, ABGX -9%. Retailers were lower despite what many expect to be decent Jan same store sales data later this week... <<
