musea. BRK. Yes, I was also contemplating 1 share back then, but like I said: It was still lower than 9000. Would not have made a millionaire out of me either. Actually, Dell, Msft and Intel did better for investors and I had them all in the beginning. But I did not hold on and so missed being a many fold millionaire. But gee, it's only money. I have to read that article, that I posted, on the trade deficit again. Now I hear that the trade deficit actually was lower this time around. Some little news if you have not heard it. Olivetti is thinking of buying Telecom Italia for 58 Bill. after getting rid of stakes in two other Italien telecom cos. Pru Sec. guy on the floor said that they own AOL, Yahoo and one more which escaped my memory now. It was not one of the top ones. Internet analyst at Oppenheimer thinks it is time to buy internet stocks again after they had this downfall of 50 to 60%. He thinks that by the second half those stocks will be at their highs again. The top pick of Internet analyst at Jefferies is Infoseek, Seek, the portal I own. He said that the deal between Seek and Dis is not well understood but that it will be "wildly" successful. See, we are not the only ones that have wild to their name. gg. I think he also mentioned Network Solution as his other pick. About pulling funds from other countries into our market, read the article from South America again which I put on last night. I have also decided to rest most of my thoughts about investing over the weekends. Dell did poorly and Intel lost steam right at the end. At least AOL kept its gain. For a while, when the President was holding his news conf., the market went into the tank but I guess investors got used to him holding press conf. again and bid the markets up. Just kidding. I am sure he had nothing to do with it and the witches did it all. Have a nice weekend. Sonny
