I would suggest reading Barron's this weekend(pgs. 27-28) simply for the joy of seeing Roundtable member Felix Zulauf pick two shorts--Marc Cabi's house of clowns, CS First Boston, and Ericsson! Imagine that. Tero continues his handset fetish drivel at TheStreet.com, saying his precious Nokia fell because of the huge expectations and ERICY rose because of the mention of a new handset. The world does not focus quite so much on handsets as Tero. Handsets do not move markets.

*LWIN tax avoidance* You asked: "Is anyone aware of conditions under which an individual can avoid paying taxes on the LWIN distribution in 1998?" Live in New Zealand! No capital gains tax here unless you are a trader of stocks or in business. Companies can split and that is not a taxable dividend. If you sell the stock it probably would be - even then, might not be. Or live in Bermuda. Or have a company registered there which owns your stock. It could have a company credit card and you could buy stuff using that. Residency can have a big impact on tax, so if you live in the USA, you might have to pay anyway.
