The following are a few examples of Kathleen Sindell,
Ph.D. news quotes.

get an introduction on calculating the sustainable growth potential of your own company, a
competitor or any public enterprise, Alexandria, VA-based consultancy Kathleen Sindell,
Ph.D. Consultants has published a formulaa on its Web site, www.kathleensindell.com/sustainble.htm.
Company founder Kathleen Sindell says she uses the formula to determine whether
companies
are adequately funded to reach their public growth pronouncements. She says CIOs need to
develop their own benchmarks to determine whether they have the capacity to meet growth
expectations. Some of the variables to consider are technology performance and its
capacity, technical staffing levels and skill sets, project budgets and the company's
ability to finance the IT growth strategy. "Sustainable

| "Day
trading is a lot like commodities trading, which is basically betting on the
weather," says Kathleen Sindell, author of Investing
Online for Dummies. "If you did badly one day, there's no guarantee
you'll do better the next". "Since
the ECNs (electronic communication networks) have come into being, the spreads have
lessened, says author Sindell, who teaches personal finance
at Johns Hopkins University's MBA program. "The forecast is that the ECNs will
eventually drive out spreads altogether."

| "I think it's fascinating that there's this small part of the population
that's really enamored with this [day trading}, and think it's their ticket to an early
retirement in the Caribbean," says Kathleen Sindell, a consultant, adjunct finance
professor and author of Investing Online for Dummies.
She agrees with Busick that day trading is like gambling." But you might have a better
chance with gambling, because you know what the odds are," she says. "Part of it
is what they're reading, which says its a great way to make money and become rich. There
are also courses being offered that tend to promote this myth." "A Roll of the Dice, by Bill Day, The
Business Record

Sindell, author of Investing Online for Dummies,

before reacting. "You're not going to have time to analyze and reflect on what the
corporate news means," Sindell said. "We may see some runs on stocks". "Pro and Cons of Night Trading", by Beth
Healy, Boston Herald

Sindell, author of Investing
Online for Dummies." "Analysts predict that number to double by the
end of 1999. With more than 400,000 online trades a day, this is clearly not a fad. Though
there will always be a need for full-service firms, they will have to restructure their
pricing to compete with the discount operations."
