I guess some encouraging news from Mrs. Cohen. Hope it helps technology
sector. Follwoing is from Reuters.

NEW YORK, Oct 24 (Reuters) - The U.S. economic and profit outlook remains solid and the consequences of slower Asian growth will likely have only a mild impact long term in the United States, said Abby Joseph Cohen, co-chair of investment policy committee at Goldman Sachs & Co.

The well-respected Wall Street guru made her comments today, following yesterday's turmoil in global stock markets, triggered by a 10 percent plunge in Hong Kong shares.

''We continue to expect the U.S. equity market to rise in price and have made no change to our 12-month target of 1050 (for S&P500 index),'' Cohen said in a report.

Sam, you're saying that one of the problems here is that Japan over-consumes?? I always hear economists say just the opposite.
