SF, Very low trading volume today, any thoughts as to why? Few sellers, seems like just traders playing the $1 swings. Seems like the price is establishing a base around $30.25 for the last several days. Where do you see us for the rest of the week? The time pattern is at 9 days from the last low, which previously heralded a downward movement for a few days. Maybe this is the last down cycle prior to earnings. Anyone have any comments or TA read on this?? BB

Re: Japan finance ministry scandal Don't know how the market will react, but I see it as a positive. Finance Ministry, and this minister in particular, have been central figures opposing reform of the financial system. This scandal substantially weakens their hand, and strengthens the Prime Minister's--and he's been trying to move to a more market oriented environment in Japan. (Boy, things take a long time in that country!) js
