Welcome to the AMAT thread, Larry, I hope you continue Posting.

You are right, Tech investors get really nervous when they learn about price cutting and they react negatively at first. Later on, they realize that price cutting stimulate business in that more buyers can afford to buy the product.

AMAT will only benefit from price cutting. As computers become cheaper, demand increases for them to spur demand also for computer CHIPS!...

What we are seeing is the Pleasant result of the recent turmoil of the currencies of countries in the Far East---most of them producers of Electronic components. As their money Inflates, they sell cheaper computer components to us and we in turn, can build cheaper computers. As their workfoce become cheaper, we, who have Electronic component factories in there could benefit further...(Of course, as they become "poorer", we can not sell them more of our products; but if we give them more work to do, then they will have more money to continue buying our products!...)...
