Subprime scare provided the fundamental news backup drop for the IT bottom.
But this is now yesterday's news. What's next?


OMAHA, Nebraska (Reuters) -
Warren Buffett said on Saturday problems in the U.S. subprime lending industry were unlikely to pose a major threat to the overall U.S. economy.

"I don't think there's going to be any huge danger to the economy," although the crisis is a "very big problem" to many in the industry, Buffett said at the annual meeting of Berkshire Hathaway Inc., his insurance and investment company.

As long as unemployment and interest rates did not rise significantly, Buffett said "it's unlikely that that factor triggers anything of a massive nature in the general economy."
