All, Funny that GDP figures show an economy basically unchanged from late last summer when we were in the "Goldylocks" economy (haven't heard that for a while, have we). Everything was "perfect" then, I remember CNBC trotting out analyst after analyst saying that someday somthing would go wrong, but there was absolutly nothing on the horizon to threated "perfect". Enter Asia. Now, though things are essentially unchanged or little changed, the sentiment is 100% reversed, very little chance of anything going right, big chance of everything going wrong. We will have down days (probably today), but things are never as bad as they appear when they seem to be very bad, never as good as they appear when they seem to be great. John

Yaacov, Were it not for "Man of the year" media exposure sucking in fresh group of "reatil bagholders" buying all for compound numbers of the past Intle stock would be trading around $60 headed for fifty. Now we'll just have to waht for them to post the earnings disapointment. a Lehman Bro's analysit reports Boxmakers stopped buying Intel CPU's during the last three weeks of the year in anticipation of Intels announced imdending price cuts. Post with this info can be read on the AMD Press thread if you like. Of coarse it's "Read it and weep" stuff so you may may want to wait untill after Christmas to get the after christmas/Intel Blues. Turns out 97 was a net no gain year and all you got in your stocking were twice as many shares. Apparently the stocksplit was just another Intel planned media event.
