No I am not intending to buy oils Sergio,but I keep a watch list so I know where I want to go if a something happens to make think the time has come,and I am removing KEG from my prime list unless Cary can convince this attempt to acquire Dawsons is a wise move-- On the curiosity front ExideBattery(EX) rose 1&3/4 points on heavy volume on Friday--FWIW,talk of a hostile takeover is on the EX thread---this stock has a huge short position on it,and on Monday S&P removed them from negative credit watch and affirmed an outstanding rating---but stock went down because CEO said there will be NO sale of the company.Max

Sergio..... Well said....wish I could write like that....smile...I agree completely....liquidity, politics, and currencies are in my opinion the three keys....where we go from here is out of our hands...there are so many variables right now that can make or break our market...we need to watch, wait and be very, very careful.... Yeltsin's move today firing his prime minister of 3 months is just another example of the unknown variable....this kind of news causes jitters worldwide...wish I had the answers.... Well, stay well everyone...and think before you invest...smile... REdhead
