Hi Bonnie; No I didn't notice that, been to glued to the tick and the overall picture, getting a feel for what the program trading is telling me, and when the S/MMs are shorting and covering, in mass and in the general sense, I don't have a way to see this in sectors, so for right now my focus is on the big picture. Playing sectors is not a lot different than playing a stock, they can hump and pump and dump and jump, but still are not often good plays in a down or unsettled market. The one I do understand is the oil drillers, and I told people a long time ago to get out of them, I bit on TDW a couple weeks or so ago, but dumped right back out, and since then it's been down hill. I don't like the AN BP merger but the market seems to, in the long haul it will hurt the consumer, but then I guess that's BP's plan anyway. Jim
