Frank. Maybe this will calm the markets. gg.

Hillary - Angel of Mercy. Maybe future Ambassador to Palestine?

One talk on Wall Street is that the market is worried that the trio Clinton, Greenspan and Rubin may be torn apart. I would worry more about Rubin. And Brazil definitely is not helping today. Brazil is struggling again with their currency. Glad I am out their tel.stocks. May look interesting again soon.

Naz is trying to catch up number wise with the DOW. On the downside.
Monday's have not been outstanding for the markets lately and maybe Tuesday will finally be the start of the Xmas rally. I can think of a cpl of stocks I would love to get at these prices. LU is getting near an 88 entry point. I am tempted of getting more and Intel, wow.

Frank. Looks like the NAZ came to its senses. The DOW pulled strongly ahead on the downside. I don't think that is a plus though. gg.

I did not mean that LU would come down to 88. Let's hope not. gg. Some money managers were looking at this number as a very good entry point. I certainly hope that they will be disappointed. This was a nutty 5 points down.
