Monsieur Gonzo :) How can I do some index arbitrage ? One scenario that I'm looking into is buying ftse100 puts when the dow takes a hit. I tried to search for ftse100 options, but I cannot find'em. (FSX, FST don't show any options) The WEBS are interesting, but I have to know what companies are in the index. I followed some of the webs, but it seems to me that they are illiquid and don't follow the underlying value (as opposed to spy and dia) Thanks in advance for your advice, Regards, Bullseye!

Off the tickertape (10:50) SAP 1Q earnings up 62% yrly basis. Price in Frankfurt up 4% today. Knock, knock, anybody home? You guys just know MSFT, ORCL and SUNW I guess. Ever heard of PeopleSoft for instance? Yes? Well, their last name is Bashful and the Snowwhite's first name is SAP. Coming soon to the street near you (Autumn 98). End of the plug by DJ (g) Steve, re Chicago: got a nice, high-quality quote for some joint on the waterfront (OF COURSE I already forgot the name of the place, but it not the end of the week). You just cant compare the traffic at Duesseldorf with O'Hara, but again maybe we'll jhave better insulation....
