Luckily for me, I don't own any ORCL at the present. I got out at a much higher level. I lashed out because of the garbage factor of SI, not because of a big loss. However, I certainly have them in other stocks.

As far as ORCL, I am not too optimistic about their future prospects. I don't think they will go out of business or anything, and I like their vertical market strategy. However, I think that the database market is slowing at the high end, and ORCl is getting killed on the low end by SQL Server. While I think the idea of the NC is good, I am not sure that ORCL will be the company that makes the money off of it. I think that there will be plenty of competition in that market, which will reduce the profit levels. While the server market will grow because of the NC, I am not sure that ORCL will win this battle either.

Good luck in your investments,
Dan
