- Fidelity has a new fund called New Millenium fund. According to a
- recent WSJ article, NM can invest in just about any way its manager
- pleases. There are no limitations on the size of the stock it buys, the
- amt of foreign stocks, or the currencies and countires in w/c the fund
- invests.

- Neal Miller is the fund manager. He describes himself as a stock picker
- who tries to be early on a variety of trend changes. He looks at forces
- of change through 4 or 5 filters: legislative change, demographic
- change, changes in social attitudes and those brought about by new
- products and events, such as earthquakes or volcanic eruptions.
