Next week we have a raft of earnings in the tech sector, with STM, Philips and Nokia. We have got to see evidence that if the bad news is not turning into good news, then at least the bad news is slowing,

The market is becoming very nervous about the earnings outlook for the tech sector after a string of bearish outlooks by tech giants such as Nortel and Sun Microsystems.

There's going to be this flip-flop next week and continually until we get through earnings season, going from earnings to worrying about the economic slowdown and what inflation brings so I think next week is going to be marked by that. We're getting to the point where the market needs good earnings. It needs to have a catalyst to get the growth sector moving again.

Next week is the big one for earnings. You've got Microsoft, Intel, all the banks.

I hoping to make it [decision] sometime next week. I love the academics at Tech. I can get a great degree there in engineering. Georgia has the ability to win it all next season. I think I can play early at both schools. It's going to be tough.

With companies like GE we expect earnings to remain strong through next year, where the momentum with tech may begin to slow.
