LT ... how about Apple as a short? They had good results today so you'd have to let that play itself out, but after that....

We know the PC business is in trouble (from cpq's warning - Dell is only ok because cpq is sooo stupid). Apple is benefitting for now because they have a cool line of "boutique" products - but Dell has already announced that they will be coming out with a line similar to Apple, colors etc. and an ibox product. Apple margins have always been to high and continue to be, Dell is able to sell other OSs besides msft now due to the DOJ putting a collar on msft. Just a thought

LT:

I'm not heavily into the entrails game, but pay attention to them. An awful big bunch of today's investors are pure technicians so it doesn't pay to be unaware of what they are looking at. I thought that todays' market was one of the wildest, most confusing, hair-balls I've ever seen.

The entrails look foreboding to this rank amateur. I especially loved the violent reversal in the inuts. What sayeth the sage from the waxed cardboard cave? (g)
(incidentally, mine has handled the recent rains rather poorly, soggy and easily torn every time I roll over in my squishy sleeping bag.) (g)

Best, Earlie

Luc, better adjust the aluminum pyramid hat and lay off the glue bong and TChicken. -g- Lose a thousand, ho, ho ho. PPT will be there to stop things at 250. -ng- They got this thing down pat like DeBeers, but even better - like having Russia in jail at the bottom of Homestake's Lead gold mine 8000 foot down. I done been there, and you won't get out if they don't want you to. -g-
