Open

I would like to talk about two things today: Oregon wines and financials.
First you should know that Domaine Serene from Oregon will be putting out the best pinot noirs in this century and probably millennia. Ken Evenstad, after making it in the pharmaceutical industry, is coming up with his greatest creation yet, and it's called "Monogram". You won't find it at your typical wine store, and you shouldn't drink it for another 15 to 20 anyway. But if you ever get your hands on one of those bottles thy shall treasure it like it is your own child. If you don't believe me, pick up a bottle the "Grace", lovingly named after Ken's wife. You will find yourself drinking one of the most complex, feminine, balanced pinot on this side of the Atlantic and the Monogram is suppose to be the king of the portfolio of already magnificent wines. Oregon with it's longer than California day time in the summer and clement temperatures is the perfect place to grow such delicate grape as pinot.
Next I would like to turn your attention to financials. After consulting Jim Cramer's chart of the GPD cycle it looks like we are approaching the bottom. Soon enough, the Fed should ease and the financial sector should be one of the beneficiary. But I am not a financial analyst and before taking my advice consult your own financial adviser.
