This is what I've been waiting for. Tax cuts, "big-bang" and currency intervention should do it. Not to mention that S. Korea is only looking for 150 yen in order to get their house back together.

Bank of Korea sees about four pct GDP contraction

SEOUL, June 18 (Reuters) - South Korea's economic slump will continue through the rest of this year, with the economic
growth for all of 1998 seen at around minus four percent, a senior central bank official told Reuters on Thursday. .....

''We hope an upturn (of the economy) starts after the middle of next year,'' Lee said, without giving a growth forecast for
calendar 1999.

''If the yen further declines to around 160 (to the dollar) then we will have very much difficulty in stabilising our economy,'' Lee
said. ''But if the (yen/dollar) remains under 150 then we can keep our exchange rate at the same level as now.''


Should be able to sustain this rally we started yesterday. I think once we get through options and futures expiration, a more calmed tradding pattern will resume. I believe most likely back to 9150 on the DOW.

Wayde.

>>>Long time not hearing from you. Glad to see you again.<<<

Hi Nancy. How are you?

>>> you mean SLB the oil service stock has accumulation ? with crude at $12 ? <<<

Scarey but true. I doubt I'll touch it until the SPX gets @ or below 1080 though just to be safe (being that I feel we'll retreat to that level).

Take care.
