I'm re-sending the 
    previously sent chart to see how much clearer it is.

    Ok, I set the site to allow attachments to be displayed in the body of

      It is a simple matter to change 
      the parameters of the
      list to allow attachments to 
      emails rather than have
      a poor example of them stored on 
      site.
       
      Please Bob, wake up and fix this 
      problem.

Attachment]
        
Attached is a chart comparing three averages - the 
        DJ-30 of 1928, the Nikkei of 1989 and the NASDAQ of today (1999 to 
        present).  I converted the data of all 3 averages into percentages 
        of their previous all-time highs.  While there is no longer much 
        correlation as to market cycles, there is one glaring conclusion one may 
        draw from the comparison - that this market will probably take a longer 
        time to recover than most people can imagine.
Which path will the 
        market take?  That of the 1929 market, where the lows happened 
        early in the cycle or that of Japan where a new lower low is ahead of 
        us.
An interesting sidelight to the chart, each of the 3 markets 
        hit 50% of their previous all-time high 1877 trading days later.
