O/T Twick, if you get a chance, stay at the Peninsular Hotel or the Regent in Hong Kong. Hong Kong is kind of dead, but the view from the Regent at night is unrivaled anywhere in the world, IMO. Bali is OK, but way over-rated, IMO. The beaches suck. I prefer Moorea in Tahiti. I've never been to Australia. Japan is OK, but I it freaks me out how organized they are. Actually, the more I've been to places in the world, the more I've come to appreciate all the great places here in the USA. Often times just because a place is somewhere else, we think it's better, especially beaches. If you're into exotic stuff, you can't really do much better than Cannes during the busy season. For people watching, I like Venice Beach, CA.

Consumer Confidence numbers out at 10 am ET tomorrow, anyone long might want to tighten their stops right after the open, as if these numbers are not good, or even ok, the party is over. But if they are good, we may get quite the move up <g>. A ton of other economic releases this week too, including this important, once a year release - The benchmark revision of the national economic statistics is out Wednesday. This has the potential to be a major market mover, I'm surprised the media has made no mention of it at all as far as being cautious, they are onl watching the CEO deadline date it seems. Well, I guess I'm not that surprised, it might ruin the exuberance <g> morganstanley.com Other releases this week, it's a busy one, and may make morning trading pretty volatile. But what else is new!
