Today the subject is the "January effect." Looking at the actual total years' results since 1950, it appears if January is positive for the S&P, then the next year is anywhere from +7% to +45% (54 years). The exceptions have been 2001 and 1966, when both years were down years, even though the January of each year was up. On the other hand, if January has been negative, then for the most part, the entire year has also been negative. In 20 years, there have been only two exceptions, with 1982 and 1968 being positive years overall.

At Linux World Conference and Expo in New York at 10 a.m. on the show's first day, a milling throng filled the lobby of the Javits Center, waiting for the opening bell, as it were. It was a happy sight for Linux boosters, one that hasn't been seen since 2000 or 1999. While show organizer IDG doesn't have attendance figures ready for publication yet, my impression was that attendance was way up over the past few years' worth of LinuxWorlds. Exhibitors were out in force, too. While the show floor seemed to occupy no more square feet than last year, that is probably because while there were more exhibitors, the average booth size was smaller. But those booths were, for the most part, active all day.
NEW YORK (Reuters) - As never before, corporate customers are turning to Linux software instead of Microsoft Windows to run big business operations.
