My fund manager told me about Xerox “going haywire” or some stock gibberish but a hot chick walked past and distracted me during our lunch 3 weeks ago. Maybe this was it he was talking about.

“That means Xerox will be hiring 500 new people in India.”

No doubt; our only hope rests in a prolonged war between India & Red China.
