the next round of scandals will be from Silicon Valley
hold onto your jockstraps and g-strings for the next ones
they will include some highly respected companies and CEO's
it will involve heavy use of borrowed money and resource diversions to purchase equity share buybacks
the purpose is to prop up the stock
to ensure stock option compensation packages remained lucrative
even as executive mgmt sold the stock in droves
IBM is only one example
the others will be from Silicon Valley (so far spared)

the locations of the scandals to date have been
Enron - Houston TX
WorldCom - Jackson Mzippi
Xerox - upstate NY
Sunbeam - dunno, northeast?
Cendant - NYCity
Global Xing - Bermuda
ImClone - New Jersey/ New York

notice nothing from Silicon Valley???
just wait
the next round will be enough for the S&P to penetrate 950 convincingly
and for Dow to penetrate 8500 convincingly
and for NazComp to penetrate 1300 convincingly

more insider trading scandals to come
probably from biotech on FDA rejections, just like ImClone

we have only seen the upper 20-25% of the fraud
the next round will push down a USdollar accelerating downward

which will set up for the Mother of All Scandals
THE JPMORGAN & FEDERAL RESERVE GOLD SCANDAL
coming probably early next year
when the gold derivative "events" occur
