Billy Fish 2,

You are quite wrong I am afraid. The amrket in the UK is still at a pretty reasonable level. Stocks may have come off their overinflated dot com boom highs, but they are still (generally) as high now as they were before that mad cycle started.

You cannot look at the tech stocks alone for a stand alone index. If you do, you see the sad state of the Techmark index and its poor performance. Too narrow a band of stocks to have an index for. Wild swings in up and down moves will always be prevalent in such an index.

The FTSE 100 is still around the area it was in pre Sept11 as well.

So, in all, why don't we just stick to this forum being about aircraft and wannabes, not finance and market making?

Yours...
