<<<I keep expecting a flight to quality and liquidity, because I think this market has a big leg down in 2005, regardless of the election.>>>

That has been going on continously, but there are always
those who wont settle for the small returns , and like myself, will look at Yhoo, Qcom, etc
If sentiment turns negative, they will get hit a bit harder than quality stocks,but the gamblers will always return.

Recently I have looked more for long term returns,Jan '05 and out, and that has the advantage of a lot less worry.

I see CPN has a new contract, not sure how big it is in regard to their total, but I guess NY figures they will be around for a while.

I'm trying to look past that and think about what does well in the rebound.
I admit, I think too much. When NXTL falls to a buck, just buy it. That's the attitude I need to have. Look for the next NXTL.>>

Personally, I think as the threat for a terrorist attack gets more talk ( and it's getting alot lately) and as the olympics get closer, I think people are going to go to cash PRIOR to any possible terrorist attack....so, IMO, any strength in the market and many will use it to cash out. Me? I will stick with 50% vested and 50% cash and be ready to buy if/when we get a severe whack job......NXTL at a buck and I'll be all over it...I was all over it at about $3.25 and like an idiot, I sold about 90% of my shares betwen $6 - $7.50...still have a few shares though....
