... There are more than a couple of truths in jtechkid's message... riots in Indonesia, interest rates rising in Hong Kong, probable devaluation in China, liquidity crunch coming in Japan (how would you stabilize the yen without raising rates) which is a few % points on the nikki from complete breakdown... chronic dram over-supply aided by subsidy and now the IMF... Win 98 or is it (99)... INTC's margins falling and IMO that's just begun... oh, and the first signs of liquidity problems in Tawain (my brother-in-law just came back from trying to put a huge satellite deal back together, which had collapsed when a Japanese bank fell out - he failed) ... as for the hyperbole... since when has passion been a bad thing --- IMO its far better than dogma disguised as science which is what defines debate on this thread at the moment.
