SB - Seems to me that the market in the crapper is the big worry. It really doesn't take nuch to spook it and Monday we could be in for a real big dipper day after Mr G and Biggs and the Japanese Vice-Finance Minister who on Friday revealed that he apparently takes investment advice in US equities from Alan Greenspan! On top of Brazil and now China and who knows where else next week we have a full blown trade war about to errupt over Bananas. Still even with all that people have still got to invest if they want to retire and my wife tells me that over the next 18 years 78 million Americans will turn 51 years old. What a stream of high earners seeking investment!!!! In addition looks to me that the usual suspects MSFT, INTC, AOL, CSCO, CPQ, IBM, T, etc etc are the head of a pack that does include others. Not many but some and of those a few are going to be in wireleless telecom. AND all of these companies prospects are simply staggering. Growth in this area is if anything acclerating and the new products and scope in Internet and all the new wireless and broadband based products is simply wonderful to tech nuts like me. Can't wait for all the new stuff to try out and the companies concerned are just fantastic investments and getting better. Also it appears that the average investor didn't panic last Aug/Oct. He/she just held and remained calm. The ones that did panic were the professionals!!!!! Fund managers and the like an it looks very much like we're about to have a re-run next week. Isn't it funny a week or so ago you heard comments that "investors" were worried about the impeachment but now that the impeachment looks like its all over where are the happy relieved investors going out to buy? regards, L

* Off Topic * StevenB and all Wind followers: Sounds like Wind is still counting them up and making them right... Check out Friday's close, Wow. Ali, maybe this is the trading stock now? BTW, WIND is on the HOT subjects here in SI tonight... ********* Sunday January 24, 4:06 pm Eastern Time Wind River sees Q4 revs between $37-39 mln ALAMEDA, Calif., Jan 24 (Reuters) - Software tool developer Wind River Systems Inc. estimated late Friday that fourth quarter revenues would total $37 million to $39 million, bringing fiscal year 1999 revenues to $128 million to $130 million. Such revenues would yield fourth quarter earnings per share of $0.27 to $0.30, Wind River said. Fiscal year earnings per share would fall between $0.89 and $0.92 if revenues targets are reached. Wall Street expects the company to earn $0.29 a share in its fourth quarter and $0.91 for the year, according to First Call consensus estimates. The company said the earnings per share estimates beat the year-ago numbers by 37 percent and 42 percent, respectively, excluding a one time charge in last year's fourth quarter. Wind River warned that it cannot be certain as to the results for its fourth quarter ending Jan. 31, 1999. ''While we cannot predict with any certainty whether our revenue will meet or exceed our expectations, we do anticipate another solid quarter of results and remain confident as to our prospects for fiscal 2000,'' chief financial officer Richard Kraber said.
