McLeodUSA stock seen as buy despite recent drop
Analysts largely rate McLeodUSA a buy amid a stock drift after earnings cuts and rising debt. They cite strong management, ample cash from a $725 million line of credit and $750 million in bonds, with about $1.15 billion available cash. Some warn of volatility in the CLEC sector and a slow rebound, while others see potential upside if cash flow turns positive in 2003.

Anti-Beer Tax Debate Spurs MADD and NIAAA Support
Mothers Against Drunk Driving and the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism cite studies showing higher beer prices can lower traffic fatalities while noting more research is needed. Restoring the tax to 1990 levels could reduce a six-pack price by about 12.5 cents, a change linked to past declines in domestic beer production.
