So, we aren't in the financial sector getting play today. The money for that play is coming from somewhere, and it is the somewheres that are not today's hot potatoes that will be a little lower. MSFT has caused the techs, and the NASDAQ, to be the cool potato today because justice might come after them again. A little public news on ASND would improve our situation. Remember we follow ASND better than most analyst. So for us to bullish and ahead of the market is relatively normal. That usually ends up disappointing us, but in the long run, being a head of the street is how you beat the street. The recent article about SI says that in general SIers are bulls. Which is correct in this market. An offset to all of this conversation is Tim Luke's usual comment that ASND is a late starter, and usually runs later in the day. What I am a little curious about is the Citibank deal really approvable from a trust prospective? Notice they called Clinton before announcing the deal. Huh, are they looking for, or paying for, White House support for this deal? Just a few thoughts, Dennis
