I read in a newspaper today of AOL's plan to allow its members access to email and more through a web site so that they are not tied to their home set-up. This is a big initiative for AOL. Does anyone know when this is to be released? Such an announcement may further undermine the perception that YAHOO! will dominate the internet. RJ, short at 69 : )

Don, we should all keep quiet when YHOO is going our way so as not to jinx it. :-)

>>There is not much of an earnings rally this quarter I guess! Yeah. Virtually all the proxies for the market that I chart have come up to resistance again, and appear to be resuming downtrends...lower lows and lower highs. Two proxies that have proven very helpful in the past for me for tracking the small-cap marketare two mutual funds...the Montgomery Small Cap Fund and the T. Rowe Price New Horizons Fund, and they both are trending down below their 50-day averages. Considering that they are actively managed, a downtrend in these funds is doubly troubling. A breakout above those resistance levels will change my mind. The telecom services and healthcare sectors are big exceptions. If you're looking for strength, stocks like AVEI, CYBX, IDPH in healthcare and WCII and PGEX in telecom services (all with blowout earnings) are acting great. I'm keeping an eye on the banks (which generally lead the market) and those two mutual funds though. Considering the overall trend, I'm staying in cash...at least for the next sixty seconds.
