>>I can't believe the spread between ALTR and XLNX is ~$24.

I can't believe you judge ALTR and XLNX based on
their share price spread. Everyone I talk to
says the same thing, XLNX is ahead of ALTR....

ALTR has more shares outstanding than XLNX and
with this in mind, both companies have the
same MARKET CAPITALIZATION of approx. 6 BILLION.

In the past 1.5 years, XLNX was trailing ALTR by
a large factor based on MARKET CAP. Now XLNX
has closed the gap (wall street interpretation)
and subsequently the share price of XLNX was raised
and ALTR lowered to maintain equal market caps since
the earnings and growth are basically similar..

So, shorting XLNX because it is 24 points higher
than ALTR is a BAD indicator !! Rather, you should
be guessing where the market is headed in the
next few months.

Adios! Ameego!

P.S. I think I know who you really are ? Maybe! hee!
