A friend of mine sent me this advisory on the stock market today.
"Normally I avoid discussing any advice received from my broker, but I felt this was important enough to share, and warn you since this
explosive situation might prove to be yet another Worldcom.
"Please review any holdings you might have in the following stocks:
- American Can
- Interstate Water
- National Gas Company
- Northern Tissue Company
"Due to uncertain market conditions, we advise you to sit tight on your American Can, hold your Water, and let go of
your Gas. You may be interested to know that Northern Tissue touched a new bottom today, and millions were wiped clean. It's a tough market out
there. Be careful".
