Don, Good points. DOW 10K = Manifest Destiny! I just hope RMBS goes along for the ride. I am inclined to agree with our newcomer that the near term momo is gone. The next RMBS rah rah show is the 2/23 Intel developers forum. This will be important as to direction and update on implementation of RDRAM. Assuming everything is on track, we should get the normal pop. Regards, MileHigh

Brazil's stock market went up 33% in one day. Holy cow! Their problems aren't over by a long shot and they will infect all of Latin America. Does it derail the long-term bull market here? I don't think so. But short-term, who knows? The Fed is not going to step in again. Alice Rivlin, Vice-Chairman of the Fed is talking down the stock market. Greenspan speaks on 1/20 - he could damage things if he wants to. If I were trading or holding Brazilian stocks, I would be looking to get out now. That 33% rise was a gift - time to go to the beaches in Rio and party with that 33% gift. What market rises 33% in one day. Is there something going on here that we are missing? And Mexico may be next - their capital reserves are nothing to rave about. China - some of their institutions are failing. So I am a bit nervous in the short-term. Now there is a new everyday word on the street -"valuation". The internuts did lousy on Friday overall and some of them have better and more compelling stories than RMBS. If Brazil craps out 10% - 15% Monday or Tuesday, does that affect the US markets? I am long RMBS in my retirement account - just trying to think things thru.
