Jack, my appologies, but I think I was the one that started the discussion on Mohan tread about this fascinating article in Barrons. One of the responses I got was that only "old guys" bother reading Barrons, which as usual is down bearish, well sweet inocence and ingnorance, just makes the world move forward. That is why IBM gave a hand to his fellows on WS a month ago and also why the market opened gap down and so much resistance is now to trade halts on the NYSE. VEGA and DELTA "dynamic" adjustments. Myself personally credit the recent rally to unwinding of those adjustments. Haim

Asked whether the BOJ would extend special loans to large construction firms if their possible failure might affect banks, Matsushita told a parliamentary committee: ''If (possible failure of) construction firms were to affect banks and have a serious impact on the settlement system as whole, they would be considered for special loans. ''However, I see little risk of this happening, taking into account the size of construction firms in Japan and their relationship with financial firms.''
