<<it's happened 5 times in the last two years and each time it goes back down, someone says the same thing

we won't see $22-23 per share again any time soon

each time they're wrong>>

Lifeisgood: Maybe you should check your facts before you state as fact anything so misleading.

l. COMS started a downturn 2/2/99 when the stock was near $50 and bottomed ~ 4/8/99 at ~$21, with the lowest intraday trade in this period of $20.

2. In the period August - September l998 COMS went to as low as $24 -25, back over $30, back down to $24-25 and then back over $30. The lowest intraday I could find was $23. The point I gathered from looking at the chart was the time COMS spent at ~ $25 in every instance was a great buying opportunity that did not last more than a week.

3. (The following is from memory because I don't have a long term chart) In approximately April 1997, immediately following the US Robotics merger, COMS fell from ~ $35 to as low as 25. There was an intraday low below this ( I remember the day well because I was daytrading) but there also was a sharp intraday recovery. The point being that $25 was another great buying opportunity because the stock moved from there to ~$50+ within a month.

BTW, I don't recall your posting on this thread in the past two years, so how can you know that "each time they said... and each time they were wrong"
