IMCL...... << a good batting average >> mb. you are quite welcome... and in light of this ability, i suspect the kraut merck is far more more adept at selection than the sector's analysts... right off the b a t. <g> it would certainly be a more useful ability to them than those relied on by countless others in their quest for biotech, eh? no question. flick

To All, Another Xmas lie exposed. Computer and peripheral prices dropped 2.8% in November after a 1.5% drop in October. Does anyone anywhere think that unit sales are growing at a rate of over 25% a year, which they would have to do to achieve breakeven? And these, my friends, are two of the hot three months of the year for pc sales. What does it mean? Some folks will gain market share, some will lose it. But, overall, this is a market in deep decline and Y2K next year will make it even worse. The funny thing is, this info is wrapped in the CPI report, which the bulls will use to say that everything is peachy keen. When they do the Xmas lies, sometimes one hand does not know what the other is lying about. MB
