decisionpoint.com my favorite decisionpoint chart, cause it's the one thing I've done right lately :) airlines and autos have lost pricing power. new cars are coming out priced lower than last years models, and I'm sure everyone has heard or read about the airlines failure to raise prices last week. finally something good for consumers! In computer land, note that Dell has now matched Compaq in unit volumes. Dell is no longer playing catch up. Those of you following this battle will know that CPQ has initiated its own build to order program which works through retailers. While the move seems like too little to late, since dell has rather slight 8% margins, any decrease in their outstanding volume growth will make the p/e seem out of line. Before anybody calls me a dim permabear, let me just ask a question. Can the economic events which are foretold and depicted in such things as the A/D line and the CRB be fixed by a 10% correction in the large cap stocks? Shahar

Bobby, it is not that I am so bullish but that I find it difficult to be very bearish at this time, with the summation so oversold, even by bear market standards. <<The summation has been skewed by the abundance of new issues in this bull market>> Most new issues get listed on the Nasdaq, and therefore do not affect the New York exchange a-d figures. Caution rules; use close stops. Vitas
