SW, Ref: WCAP ($9 15/16), you wanted earnings; how about 3Q $2.95 EPS?...

You may recall that I recommended WCAP when it was around $7.00, a few weeks ago, but your objection was: not enough earnings, let's wait for the next Quarter's report. I hope $2.95 net income for three months will qualify WCAP, the CMGI, of the less affluent, for a position on the Index this time around. Look at the chart and you will see what I mean. It's also a stock with great long term prospects, that own shares in a number of future Internet related IPO's, such as Mpath and Worldgate,etc...

Why Echo? It has been drifting down on little volume. Very disappointed in this stock. Thought it would perform better.
