Abstract

Recent experimental and theoretical progress in the MH estimates from MW and Sin2efflept is reviewed, with particular emphasis on the role played by Mt. Assuming that the SM is correct and taking into account the lower bound on MH from direct searches, we derive restrictive bounds on MW and Mt. We also discuss a representative ``benchmark'' scenario for the possible future evolution of these parameters. Amusingly, this benchmark scenario suggested some time ago a value for Mt that turned out to be in very close agreement with its most recent experimental determination.
