The 950 number assumes that the Naz bleeding of listed stocks (a horrendous 1500 to 2000 issues since March 2000, we had about 5300 listed stocks trading daily then and now we average about 3300 to 3500, if someone has better numbers on total Naz issues then and now, please step forward) will finally end here. Don't write off even lower bottoms for the Naz.

Hope this helps:
