JANUARY
15, 2006 --
Eric
Dash, writing in The New York Times, January 10, reported, "The
Dow Jones industrial average closed above 11,000 yesterday
for the first time since June 2001, pointing to the renewed
confidence of investors who have long been waiting for the
market to return to one of its more elusive touchstones. Alas,
by week's end, the long wait resumed.

The
Dow Jones average closed, Friday the 13th, at 10,959.87. Perhaps
investor confidence would be bolstered if CEOs were not quite so
self-aggrandizing, and devoted their ambition to the common good.
(Establishment of an organization to deter self-seeking CEOs --
Aggrandizers Anonymous -- might be a plus.)
