Gottfried - here is that data calculated to show relative low/high range in the SOXX. I've divided the low by the high for each month and sorted by the result. A '70' means the SOXX low was 70% of the SOXX high for the given month. As was suggested in my previous post, the volatility during Sept. of this year was closely matched by that in Oct. '97 (and a couple of other recent periods). Note: if we assume that the high/low for the SOXX has already been hit for October, 2000, then the % L/H is 68.88, the second lowest in the past 5 years. BTW, in case there was any doubt, there was a very high correlation (r = .88) between bookings and the average ([high + low]/2) SOXX close for each month.

(Numbers are same percentages as above. Calculations based on 6 data points [1995-2000] except * where 2000 data is pending. If the presumptive Oct., 2000 data is included, October's average moves down to 83.09...moving that month to the top spot on this list.)
