*** �Only� 1.8 million jobs were added by US businesses in the year since August 2003. Reason to sell dollars, buy euros, and drink yourself into a depressive stupor with a jug of Wild Turkey? We don�t think so� ***Plus, e-Dispatch bonus recommendation is taking gains�

What terrible news: US companies added 96,000 net jobs to their payrolls in September! That means �only� 1.8 million jobs have been added by US businesses in the year since August 2003. The unemployment rate in the United States remains at 5.4%. Reason to sell dollars, buy euros, and drink yourself into a depressive stupor with a plastic gallon jug of Wild Turkey! Or maybe not. Because as we�ve been faithfully reporting here over the past weeks and months, politicians in Europe have a technical term for 5.4% unemployment rates and close to 4% GDP growth. They call it �Nirvana.�
Overall, consumer credit dropped by a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1.4% or US$2.4 billion in August from the previous month - the largest dollar decline since December 1990. Total consumer credit outstanding is now pegged at US$2.04 trillion.
Speaking in Hanoi, Chirac said France was right to stand up for cultural and linguistic diversity, as different cultures could be �choked� by US values. There is a dainty little irony in the the president of a country that employs a language police to keep out linguistic imports preaching diversity in the capital of a former colony� I myself revel in the idiomatic diversity of English, which is flexible enough to include such French imports as the word �cretin.�
TurkCell (TKC:NYSE) today clocked in at US$12.89 with an intraday gain of 4.97%. That�s close to US$ above our recommended entry price. We think it still has plenty of upside left!
Today�s tradesports.com standings for the 2004 Presidential Election are: PRESIDENT.GWBUSH2004: 58.6/59.0 (yesterday�s standing: 60.0/61.0)

�Oil-for-Food
helped Saddam create his own coalition to buy influence in the Security Council,
blocking any U.S. attempt to enforce the U.N. resolutions. For all the French
talk of Jacques Chirac�s principled objections to Operation Iraqi Freedom,
Saddam realized that the way to France�s vote was through its pocketbook.
Lucrative contracts for French companies, as well as firms from China and
Russia, were part of Saddam�s bid for diplomatic protection.�

*** �For tomorrow, our indicators point to similar upward and downward ranges as they did yesterday.� Fluctuating between 13,186.21 and 13,380.52, the Hang Seng came in at 13,241.46, down 80.27 points (0.60%), by the end of the trading day. There are signs of reinvigorated bullish movement on Monday, probably maxing out at 1%.
