Hi Paul, (off topic)

I see the Heng Seng is back where it was a week ago when the Dow was hitting new records. Funny thing is that Reuters didn't even mention the nearly 700 point drop in two days at the time. Oddly enough an article I found (not Reuters) gave the reason for the drop as being fears over the US raising interest rates and putting more pressure on Asian currencies. The Nikkei has given up about $2 of last weeks $4 gain (US$). Does this really amount to a "crisis"? Or markets being unmercifully manipulated by Reuters exclusive lock on NASDAQ news.

The most amazing thing I'm seeing today is the "flight to safety" (??!!!) to internet stocks like YHOO (which Reuters owns a stake in). Is something wrong with this picture?

Regards,

Don
