One of them Fed officials said today that, CPI inflation has been contained so far due to deflationary pressures from SAE, oil, etc; however, because of inability to raise retail prices US corporations are starting to suffer decreasing earnings. He sees either decreased earnings, or retail level inflation in the future - either choice is not good for high P/Es.

Mike, does this meet your "tough love" standards? -g- My letter to you know who: ------------ Jim, nice call last week on techs bottoming. How many times you find the bottom for the techs in a span of 2 months. I know you never lose money on your trades, at least that is what you want your readers to believe. As obnoxious as you are, the names of the likes of you will be used a lot in congressional testimonies following the next big crash and the ensuing depression. Look at the bright side - as self promoting as you are, the silver lining in this for you will be that you will be remembered as an icon or mania on the Wall Street in the Go Go years of the late 90's. And, you can quote me on that. Last time you replied to me asking me to be talk more intelligently. Sorry, then you would need an interpreter. Hence this mail, which even you can understand. Good luck in your self-promotional activities. Enjoy while the spot-light lasts. -Mohan ------------- I got the following reply for that mail: <<This is very funny. I think you should stop beating your wife and kids right now and start kicking the dog! hoo-hah!!>>
