PV, "What a wild two days. I can hardly wait to see the DW weekly data tomorrow to see how the market and sectors responded. It looks to me that the mutual funds were going into the techs. I wonder what is going to happen to Big Bucks predictions. However, looking at DW past AMAT charts there is usually a retest of the bottoms before the movement upward." IMO, nothing has changed in the semi sector to indicate that things will improve in the mid/long term. Earnings are still a major analytical tool, as are price/sales ratio. The funds/institutions will use real data and projected near term performance to determine their investment strategies and holdings. Perceived losses for several future quarters can't be a strong positive motivation for institutions to continue to hold if the bias is downward and growth looks to be poor. Why tie up the money when there are better short/mid term opportunities. Just my opinion, BB
