If you have no interest in doing a quick stock market survey, delete now.
If you are any way "in the market" and have a few minutes to kill, help out
a friend of mine who is a grad student at Cal State-Hayward. This is real,
not one of those Internet fables. I have known and been corresponding with
Jingnong Lin for several years now. He is a mid-30s fellow from mainland
China, who was able to come over here about a year ago to study.
No, he's not into cars. I know more about motorsport in China than he does,
never mind in the USA.
And just to make sure this does NOT become one of those Internet fables,
please don't forward it anywhere else. I'd think the baseline addressed here
should be quite sufficient. Just send the reply, if you care to, to
Jingnong.
