Subj : Market Action To : All From : Paul Rogers Date : Mon Sep 12 2005 06:24 pm Content-type: text/plain Prices changed little all day. Volume continued modest, down to +4% above average. This in spite of some large M&A announcements. So I'd say the day's action was more negative than it seems. I think most people feel better about the Katerina recovery since Vice Adm. Thad Allen has been appointed to lead the effort. Why? I think there's something we investors can learn from that. Execution, in a word. The military commitment to effective action will be a pleasant, if necessary, change. We could say the same for the heros of Flight 93. For all I've harangued about strategies, I also talk about tactics. When things happen we need to know what to do, and be able to DO IT! If we don't know what to do in a certain circumstance, then we need to be committed to remedying THAT situation. But we can't be effective investors if we can't ACT effectively.
