>>> but I fear it's just CKFR getting pulled along by the mania in 'net stocks -- which I believe are in for a terrible bloodbath, and soon. Brooks, IMO we better get use to it, If CF plans to announce deals with Yahoo, AOL, etc., we could be in for more pulling, dragging, etc. Benny(IMHO)

>>>>but I fear it's just CKFR getting pulled along by the mania in 'net stocks -- which I believe are in for a terrible bloodbath, and soon. I sure hope so...then we can play them all again. Kinda like the time we fended off a Black Bear Attack in Canada..with Molsen Canadian Empties. There was about 5 or 6 of us...and a portch full of empties...he didn't have a chance. Gives you the same kinda thrill anyway....

I dunno, Brooks. This market has daytrader fingerprints all over it. Millions of newly web-empowered would-be managers who've never seen a bear market up close and personal have graciously provided a huge equity sop in each of the two most recent downturns. What keeps them going? Maybe they just don't really know what they're doing. Maybe once someone tells them, they'll turn their computers off, and this run'll be over. Valuation doesn't matter to them cuz it's boring. Speculation is hip, GenX, fun. Feh.
