last week outflow of mmf is 17.2 billions per barron's report. could not figure out where the money went as equity /bond funds inflow total was less than couple billions.

<<puzzling that so much money flowed into money market funds in one week. don't normally see this size for a one week figure for inflows or outflows>> It would be incredibly fitting if the buck got broken right now, right after the largest weekly inflow to money markets in history....<G>

U.N. LEAK: Actual Wording of Iraq Resolution Released (2002-11-07) -- An American source within the United Nations released the final draft of the Iraq resolution, which is expected to be approved Friday. The carefully-worded resolution satisfies the United States, as well as the previously reluctant nations of France, Russia and China. The following is the actual wording of the resolution, according to a U.S. diplomat who served on committee which drafted it: "WHEREAS the government of the Republic of Iraq has repeatedly ignored previous U.N. resolutions, and WHEREAS Saddam Hussein is obviously a certifiable whack-job, and WHEREAS, given half a chance, even his own mother would bust a cap in his derriere, and WHEREAS the Russian delegation supplied the beverages for our all-night resolution-drafting sessions, and WHEREAS the United States is going to disarm Saddam with, or without, the U.N., and WHEREAS the French and Chinese want to make it look like they care about the persecuted Iraqi people, but they don't want to louse up some sweet business deals with the Iraqi government, and WHEREAS Saddam owes Russia $10 billion, unsecured, and WHEREAS even Ditech.com won't give Saddam second mortgages on his seven palaces, and WHEREAS....now, where were we? Oh, yeah...whereas the media will never report the details of this resolution because they'll focus on who won--France or USA--like it's some kind of Olympic luge competition, and WHEREAS the U.N. is pretty desperate to find a raison d'etre... THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED THAT Saddam must eliminate all weapons of mass destruction in Iraq (which he won't), without delay (which he will), or the U.N. (really the U.S.) will teach him the definition of the word Hellfire."
