James, not sure if you saw the Dow Jones news release on LRCX. The CEO said that he expects the downturn to last 4 more quarters if I'm not mistaken. That's a long time!!

They also announced a 10% layoff, approximately 500 people, I think this is only the first layoff with more to come as their backlog shrinks.

Their PE looks great at 4, but it's based on 1995/96 which was the best year they have ever had. I think the PE for 1997 is going to be much higher than 4.

For two years out..I think it's a good price but I also think you will get an opportinuity to average down in those two years.

Good luck
