re: S&P 500 earnings

Bob had forecast 1998 Operating Earnings at $49, then raised to 50 in April, then in Sept lowered to 49.

In Barron's the earnings for 1998 was $37.71. I assume these are as reported (before non-recurring items/writeoffs) wheras Bob's est. is for Operating Earnings.

Last year, Bob reported the 1997 earnings in his May Marketimer.

Current estimates are: 1999 - $51.50 and 2000 - $54.60.
