"The current crash of 1998 is the worst of the Century" I already noticed that it fell faster and further in the initial correction than in either 29 or 87. This could be evidence against a big crash coming. They don't look at 97 - maybe (I don't think so) this is just a 97? David

KIp; The Japanese have been putting faith in this collage, and it's likely why they have done so good <G> After much review of their overall ideas I have concluded these people are eternal Bears. Remember "past performance does not indicate future results" I'm as good as the next guy with Artifice, I can selectively pick any kind of past statistics and arrange them to prop up any kind of prediction you want. Of course sooner or later the prediction will come true if I stick with it long enough. But I have to work with the now, and more than ever I'm sure not even the best minds can read the unqualified future. Which at this point depends more on interest rates , and oil prices..if you knew what them two were going to do you could get rich without the worry of all the other stuff. --------------------- In the 30s during the depression Will Rogers said "Inflate inflate , perchance to dream what dreams we fly off to we know not of." --------- BTW He was also on record "in front" of the fact about the 29 crash. Much has been written about that crash and how it happened by pundits that didn't see it coming. If I were to sum it up with one word it would be "Corruption". Jim
