Pinky's Tailing Box In Conjunction with At a Bottom Now for Gold Presents: Young Frankgreeenspan. Dr. Frankenstein? Frankgreenspan. You're putting me on. No, it's pronounced Frankgreenspan. You must be E-gold. No, it's pronounced Igor. But they told me it was E-gold. They also said the XAU would rally this summer. Well, come Igor, we have much to do! Mankind is flawed. There is far too much irrational exuberance out there. In spite of our portfolio's magnificence, if it were not for this continuous stream of motor impulses to buy mutual funds, the market would collapse ...like a bunch ... of ... broccoli! We must create a being that is content to stay in cash before it is too late. Yes Master, but wouldn't it be easier to just create more money supply to feed the current stock market bubble? # Ah Inga, you're here. Mmmmm ... mmmmm! What a knockout fund portfolio you have. Mmmm! The feeling is mutual. Is it true the former master of this castle advised selling every stock at Dow 6500? You are talking about the nonsenical ravings of a lunatic mind. You mean the former resident Frankenstein? No, the former market analyst Elaine Garzarelli. # Okay, Igor, the experiment is ready to begin. Go into the specimen room and bring me the perfect brain. Yes Master. # Ah, you're back already Igor. Now we slip it in the cranium like so and...it is done. Master, a storm approaches. KABOOM! Master, your creation breathes. Igor, how many times must I tell you not to interrupt my work with trivial details. Master, gold just edged above $300 an oz again. IT'S ALIVE!!!!! # Igor something is wrong with my creation--it's going berzerk. What brain did you bring me? Why, AB's brain. It wasn't AB Normal's brain, was it? No, of course not Master--ABX's brain. But ABX's brain malfunctioned almost to the point of acquiring the Busang. Maybe it was AB Normal1s... He's gotten away, Igor. We must find him! With his brain as it is now, he will never understand the workings of the financial world, unless... Unless what Master? Unless we administer a huge dose of silly pills! # Knock Knock! Come in! You are a stranger. Here, come to my table and refresh yourself... T-h-ha-a-a-n-k you!. You're more than welcome friend. Wh-a-t i-s y-ou-r n-a-m-e? Everybody calls me Bill. Wh-y d-id you poor ho-t soup down my pa-ants? Because I'm blind. It must be bad to be blind and without job. Oh I have a job friend. What job? Leader of the country. Here, have a smoke--my Vice President grew this pouch. Now don't inhale until the tip glows. Why don't you smoke and inhale? Oh, I've experimented with it a time or two, but I never inhaled and I never tried it again. Wait a minute. I hear dogs yelping. KNOCK KNOCK--SMASH. "Commander in Chief, you're in the same room with a monster!" Don't be ridiculous--Chinese President Jiang Zemin had nothing to do with that Tiananman Square thing. I would be president too. Why sure friend, my term is almost over. But you need a good slogan to get elected. Mine was, "It's the economy, stupid." I almost went with, "It's the stupid economy," but my campaign manager wouldn't listen. So what's your slogan going to be? (Dr. Frankenstein enters and administers the pills.) I think it will be, "Cash is Crash without the 'r'." Yes! I Have Succeeded Afterall! ### From the Tailing Box... Dear At a Bottom Now for Gold: I heard the Russell 2000 is cheap relative to the Dow and S&P--is now the time to get into small caps? --Fad Conscious Dear Fad Conscious: Only if you think your brain has shrunk far enough to fit into them. --Whirlwind Dear Pinky's Tailing Box: I sold all my Zappa today because I was hungry and wanted an extra order of fries at the Twins game today. --Out in MiniZappaless Dear Out in Minizappaless: Hopefully you are stomaching the the extra greasy fries better than I am stomaching the current share price. --Whirlwind Have any questions about PMs?
