Peter Cardillo Major Quotations

We have here a cautious market, and it will continue to be cautious until we get through some major data and Greenspan's testimony on Capitol Hill. Also, investors were taking profits from last week's rally.

It might add to some short-term weakness, but it's not going to have any major effect. When you really analyze it, we had a good stock market in an era of gridlock.

We saw that in the brokerage houses with the consolidation and that's exactly what's happening in the telecommunications sector. And I believe however that there are those companies out there either through perhaps future mergers that will make it and two of them that I like for the long-term is AT&T and WorldCom, ... I think somewhere along the line they might be bought out by some major international concern but it think if you have those stocks it was good at these levels probably to begin to average out.

The markets are going to be looking at it more clearly now that the major numbers have been released.

The major companies have already reported and it's quite obvious that this market just can't shake the earnings syndrome.

We didn't see any major change out of France or Germany. While the reaction to Mr. Powell's speech at the United Nations obviously was positive, I think when people realized that Germany was not changing its stance and France wasn't softening too much, it was back to worries of uncertainty.

I believe the worst of the decline in the 'old economy' stocks is over, ... and I think what we're seeing here is a consolidation phase, even though this consolidation phase is probably taking place at the lower end of the trading range. I don't believe that yesterday's decline in Nasdaq is the beginning of any major correction just yet. Now, that is not to say that we're not going to have a correction. Indeed, we are. But I just believe that there is sufficient money out there and sufficient demand for these tech stocks yet, and that is not going to disappear so quickly. What we saw yesterday was little profit-taking after a spectacular week.
