<DIV>You probably answered your own question. IMHO, Inflation has started up

<DIV><BR></DIV><FONT size=2>&gt; I can't understand why everybody is so 
bearish.&nbsp; The two main reasons cited <BR>&gt; by most experts are rising 
interest rates and the Y2K uncertainties (and lets <BR>&gt; not forget 
inflation).&nbsp; Well as I see it, interest rates have just dropped <BR>&gt; 
more than 25 basis points; Y2K will probably be a big thud, and Greenspan 
<BR>&gt; will keep inflation in check with pre-announced rate hikes.<BR>&gt; 
<BR>&gt; Technically, we're not due for a 20% S&amp;P correction.&nbsp; Remember 
we get a bear <BR>&gt; market every 4 years.&nbsp; That would be 1990, 
1994(stealth-bear), and 1998.&nbsp; <BR>&gt; Next one's due in 2002.&nbsp; Two 
20% corrections 12 months apart would be <BR>&gt; unprecedented.<BR>&gt; 
<BR>&gt; I would guess that we have another 1994 zig-zaggy type summer with 
probably a <BR>&gt; test of the lows and as&nbsp; soon as Y2K passes, an 
explosion torr the upside.&nbsp;&nbsp; <BR>&gt; Your thoughts?<BR>&gt; <BR>&gt;
