Actually, QCOM is up 300% (not a mere 200%) from the level where it sat (and drove us nuts) for a long time. Jon.

mm - THE LIMTEX LAWS OF THE BALKANS I am an all weather friend period. I like to moan a bit to let off frustration on days like today. Gregg used to come along and give us pep talk which usually lasts well past a 15% drop. But he hasn't been around lately and his advice is sorely missed. Give the stock a break its up 200% from where you bought it. over time it will continue Thats better on a day like this. Mind you I posted at the end of April that the market would likely tank in May. I was as surprised as anyone when it started up at the beginning of May. Now it is reversing that up movement in quite abig way. MSFT, WCOM, INTC, etc are all way off their peaks and they are many peoples core holdings and tehy are down near 20%. The only problem as I see it and it is a big problem is that Bill and Tony having got us into a war with the Serbs are discovering to their clear horror this week that they are not going to win it with the current strategy. These two gamblers are much bigger gamblers than anyone on SI or even Yahoo and like any big gambler that is losing he will eventually put his shirt and his house on the table and likely will lose that as well. Except that it's not Bill and Tony's house and shirt it's ours. The Limtex Laws of the Balkans are:- 1. Never get involved in the Balkans. 2. If you get involved in the Balkans you will lose. 3. If you get involved in the Balkans things will only go from bad to worse. 4. If you have to get involved in the Balkans whatever else you do never start with the Serbs 5. The Serbs never lose. 6. If you want to start a major war then start up a little one in the Balkans. Copyright Limtex 1999 Best regards, L
