      Sign patterns consisting of some positive and some negative columns, with at least one of each kind, are shown to allow any self-conjugate spectrum, and thus to allow any inertia. In the case of the \(n\times n\) sign pattern with all columns positive, given any self-conjugate multiset consisting of \(n-1\) complex numbers supplemented by a sufficiently large positive number, it is shown how to construct a positive normal matrix whose spectrum is this multiset. Thus, the positive sign pattern allows any intertia with at least one positive eigenvalue. Section 2 contains spectral and inertia results and Section 3 the discussion.
