Gottfried, Tito, Kumar, Cary, Big Buck and threaders, have a look at the lombard site below. It is a free site if you register. I set the options at: Historical, 2400 days, amat stock, white background, and checked the DOW, S&P 100 and 500, and Russel 2,000. The chart which will appear corresponds to the length of time from 1/1/91- the current time. Print a copy and compare with your BTB data. It appears to be that when the BTB # drops significantly in one from the previous month that the price begins to drop. I drew lines at the quarters, April 1, July 1, Oct 1, in addition to the yearly lines to give me better visibility to the price changes. I honestly believe we have an excellent chance based on what CEO Morgan stated in his conference call and on TV that we will exceeding beat the remaining months of the '97 year and January and February of the '98 year. After that point the odds are against us. Any significant drop results in a significant drop in price. When and if I can get the specific data we may be able to refine this even more.
NOTE: I was not able to get the AMAT price data for the years 1991-1997. Does anyone know how we can transpose Gottfried's BTB 1991-1992 chart data onto the Lombard Data. If you do could your take the BTB data and supertranspose it on top of BTB data.
What is your reaction after reviewing the data? You can see what I am driving at.
