OT?---------------------- I thought it was higher! I just saw him on 60 minutes. Yardeni also mentioned the US is better prepared, but definetly has a ways to go- and that means mostly post 1/1/00. Very funny. not CPB or anything but TAVA or KEA or some others, then maybe sell all in June '99, pay off credit cards. Not too extreme. No shotguns gg Some scenario details I have read are hard to shake. you know what I meant, haha. I hope you're right about the sweet part.

Speaking of Yardeni, he recommends that individual investors keep only 20% of their money in stocks next year. He also recommends underweighting some sectors (e.g., energy), and overweighting others (e.g., computers). So maybe we can hang on to Compaq... As for Y2K, don't dismiss Mr. Yardeni out of hand, folks. Quite a few top software professionals (most notably, Y2K project managers) seem to be having the whim-whams about our general unpreparedness... Stock up on toilet paper, at least. jbe
