I decided to post 1 more update from last week - ie, thecomparison to each individual stock's closing high for theyear 2000. 16 of the 33 stocks are down over 50 percentfrom their highs. This means, of course, they all have togain more than 100 percent from their present close on Friday JUST TO EQUAL their high for this year.
