Joe, actually biotechs I stay away because of all the government alphabet soup involved (before a single dollar of revenue can be even collected) and because of the venture-type nature of all those operations. But I added ALT to my stable of biotech tickers. When I got more appetite for this sector, it could be one I'll look to.. rgrds CROSSY

I'll tell ya fellas, every time I look at the 69-70 chart comparison chart to the current S&P chart, it sends chills down my spine<g>...uncanny how well they are tracking...note where they top at yesterday---scarey stuff<g> As perdicted, the consumer appears to have decided to keep his credit card in his wallet, spending is dropping rapidly, both here and in the eurozone.. Yesterdays consumer debt number didn't receive much air play, maybe because it didn't paint a rosey picture<g> mrci.com PS: Joe I think you are do for some colder weather, I see we picked up another 4" of snow last night and it's still flurring...I have ice dams on the front of my house about 1 ft thick, started banging some of it off yesterday with a sledge hammer (making sure not to bang the shingles<lol>)..Those ice dams continue to back water up the roof and under the shingles( who says water doesn't flow uphill<g>), next thing you know, ya got roof leaks..bummer ( of course, the reason I have the dams is poor roof insulation)..supposed to get real cold here the next few days--sub zero..ng levels in storage are way down from last year, any prolonged cold spell is going to hit the levels further. Also need to consider the reduced capex spending on drilling the last few years..We need some of the money spent on wars over oil to be put into hybrid fuel research, so we can wean ourselves off the middle east oil teat...Here in Vt. I see GMP is talking about adding more windmills up on Searsburg mountain..apparently the existing ones are working out well...(hard to believe they can take the occasional winds of 140 mph+ and temps down to -40 up there) Originally they were thought of as an eye sore, now they've become a bit of an attraction<g>
