As usual, I don't place too much emphasis on this sort of forecast, but to the extent that I make any comments
at all about the outlook for 2006, the bottom line is this: 1) we can't rule out modest potential for stock appreciation, which would require the maintenance or expansion of already
high price / peak earnings multiples; 2) we also should recognize an uncomfortably large potential for market losses, particularly
given that the current bull market has now outlived the median and average bull, yet
at higher valuations than most bulls have achieved, a flat yield curve with rising
interest rate pressures, an extended period of internal divergence as measured by breadth and other market action, and complacency
at best and excessive bullishness
at worst, as measured by various sentiment indicators; 3) there is a moderate but still not compelling risk of an oncoming recession, which would become more of a factor if we observe a substantial widening of credit spreads and weakness in the ISM Purchasing Managers Index in the months ahead, and; 4) there remains substantial potential for U.S. dollar weakness coupled with «unexpectedly» persistent inflation pressures, particularly if we do observe economic weakness.

high balance and their
interest rates increase like the banks have been raising in recent months, this could backfire on the banks themselves, I mean since the banks

interest rates because of how the congress requires
at least all the monthly
interest and some of the principle to be paid on the cards, done so that consumers could reduce the amount of time to illiminate their debts, this may spawn many card holders whoms payments will increase much like those adjustable
rate mortgages that people walked away from to go wild with their remaining balances on the card and then default, the whole irony is that the consumer may very well use the card thats damaging them to pay for bankruptcy proceedings lol!

interest... we also think

high in 3 yrs... it will probably go up but if you are comparing an RBC penalty of $ 4k or $ 5k, then take the Variable... Hope that helps..
