Hummm.... all the Y2Ks are up today. Has anyone looked at the accumulation on ACLY last 3 weeks or so? Float is drying up. Looking at some others. Come Monday morning, people are going to realize we have less than a year to go before the Y2K thing hits. These companies are bound to do a little business anyhow... IAIC on 5X normal volume. Hummm. It just might be Y2K time. This will be the next hot sector. After the 1st of Jan people can sell their Inets and not have to pay taxes until 2000. Gee, I wonder what they will be looking to spend their money on? Tom

REGI - major accumulation (possible tax loss clearance added in) last few weeks. Looks to have minimum down side - upside 18?? (long term)

Happy New Year!! well maybe ............ Taday was planning day for the next year. From where I sit I see the new year will be one driven by FEAR - of Y2K, deflation, uncertainty, etc. You see FEAR hyping starting everywhere in the media and it will only get worse. The media will LOVE this Y2K stuff, and will act accordingly. What will the average Joe do? Likely react in a fearful manner. What do we do as investors. I for one will try to ride the wave. Y2K stock, survival stocks, gold and precious metal stocks, etc. My opinion is that the Tmex crowd will also move to these areas because it will be easy to suck in newbies for fun and games. Could it already be happening?? I may be repeating what Rande Is has been suggesting, but I've concluded the same thing without his influence. We have a new crowd psychology -- and it is FEAR. News at 11:00!! Certainly only my opinion. Any commentary? Kevin
