Good Morning Sophia, I do not have any margin at this time but did for a short while on AOL. I was not disappointed but when the market took a plunge I became uncomfortable with margin and decided to lighten up. I got burned with CMGI on Margin and decided that it is not a good policy for me. It is all a matter of how one feels in their own situation. I personally think if you cannot afford to buy a stock with your own money then it may be better to wait until you can afford to do so. S+P futures are up 180 with only a few minutes until the opening bell. If we get to 10,000 it will be necessary for interest rates to stay low. Bond markets will have to do better. The Japanese are moving money back to their shores and that means they are selling bonds here. Oil futures needs to be positive too. JMHO. Frank
