...The 21-22 February will see the 16 remaining teams in the Champions league battle it out for a place in the coveted final held on 17 May in Paris. The second round fixtures have been decided so here is a run down of who is left in the competition and their chances of progressing to the quarter finals:
Inter Milan vs Ajax
Inter qualified comfortably from Group H as winners and have a favourable match against Ajax. The Dutch side qualified as runners up of Group A without too much trouble. Inter are overwhelming favourites to qualify for the quarter finals and striker Adriano, with four goals so far in this competition, poses the main threat. Manchester City. Verdict: Inter to qualify at 2/5.
AC Milan vs Bayern Munich
Milan stuttered through the first round, with just three wins in six matches, before eventually topping the group ahead of PSV Eindoven. Andriy Shevchenko is the tournaments most dangerous striker with six goals. However, Bayern Munich should not be underestimated. They dumped out Ars...more
...ed but Broughtons counted to earn a vital 6/4 win.
Stockport County failed to edge further away from the drop zone after slipping to a 1-0 defeat at home to Stockport County. Julian Joachims header after 67 minutes for the 11/5 Pilgrims proved decisive.
Mansfield Town sent Torquay United to the bottom of the league with a 2-0 win at Plainmoor. On loan Sheffield Wednesday striker Danny Reet broke the deadlock after 11 minutes and Simon Brown secured a 19/10 victory with seven minutes remaining.more
...hey get in near the top and get creamed when the sector or market takes a dive.
Now, what were measuring here is supply and demand. When there is demand, prices rise. When a sector reaches 90%, theres not much more that can move a group higher.
But thats NOT the time to sell.
See, stocks can hang around lofty levels for a LONG time. Its only when we see more and more companies in a sector (or market) start to give sell signals, we know that supply is overtaking demand. When that happens, lower prices are on the way.
Now, say last week we noticed that a sector had a bullish percent reading of 30% and this week its now at 38%. This is a group wed want to pay attention to! Not only are the readings going up, they are going up from low levels!
This is precisely the stuff we zoom in on when telling you where to put money to work!
Predictions
If we need to get out of something, wed sure like to know it NOW, not later!
Hindsight IS 20/20. But it wont help you avoid losses in your account. Weve given up predicting what the market will do because we use tools that tell us accurately what IS happening right now in the marketplace. The point and figure charts we use and the bullish percent index are tools that tell us whats happening today. These charts tell us what is in demand and what is in supply.
There are too many folks trying to complicate the investing process. Keep it simple. Just remember that anything with too much supply will see their prices fall. Anything in demand will see their prices rise. And we have a method of measuring exactly which stocks and mutual funds are in demand and which are in supply.

One way the airlines attain cheap air flights is by reducing how much baggage you can bring. Sometimes people are so happy that they were able to find cheap air flight that all they see is the in-flight meal is not offered and they figure they can live with that. But in many cases there are other conditions of the cheap air flight that may make your trip a little less convenient. Always make sure you understand the baggage requirements of a discounted air flight so that you do not show up at the airport with more baggage than they will allow you to bring with you.

Get travel Alerts: Prices for last minute seats can even vary on the same flight! The airlines want every seat occupied and many of them use email travel alerts to accomplish this end.
Subscribe to travel Newsletters: Many travel related sites offer regular newsletters and some have options that will inform you of special last minute deals. These sites regularly search the internet for the best deals on last minute flights and will send an email when they have found one that meets your criteria.
Check with travel Agents: Internet booking has hurt many travel agents and has cut into their income. Many times, they can use their connections and pass the savings on to you to help you out with your last minute flying situation. If you find one who goes out of their way for you, then consider using them for future travel bookings.

The best way off line way to get the lowest prices is call the airlines ticket office and ask directly and usually a call placed after midnight after the system has been updated will often offer the lowest prices on airfare or available packages. Sometimes the airlines ticket office will offer vacation packages that include air fare and hotel that no agent will offer at unheard of prices.
Sometimes your best solution is not always a free one but once you have the knowledge to find the cheapest airline tickets you can use it over and over and feel confident you are getting rock bottom prices.more
