TM, those who follow the Stock Swap thread and ENMD have seen just how frenzied the market can be at times. For those who haven't heard, a new treatment for cancer made the front pages of major newspapers and led the evening newscasts over the weekend. The rights to the research are owned by ENMD, a company whose stock closed at 12 on Friday and opened at 85 this morning. It now seems to have steadied at 58. Imagine what happens to Y2K stocks when a Y2K related incident makes headlines sometime between now and 2000. People don't research everything they read/hear; often they just react. I'll bet many were thinking short-term, i.e. get in early, ride it up, then get out. For now, those who got in at the open on ENMD are looking at a 30% loss. The only sure winners were those who believed in ENMD prior to today. The only sure winners in Y2K when it gets hot again -- and it will -- will be those who are now invested in top-tier Y2K stocks like ALYD. Count on it! - Jeff

I believe that the euro is going to happen... but it will get pushed back. This opens the door of opportunity for those companies which can rapidly implement a solution down the road... I don't believe that full implementation is scheduled until 2002. Is that correct? Tech Master The Euro is already happening right now with no plans for a delay. Full implementation is July 1, 2002. In my previous post, I was just questioning the advisability for Alydaar to commit its resources to the Euro when there is the possibility the Euro may be a failure, especially because of the lack of computer resources to handle it along with Y2k.
