Katherine, regarding your question about negative/positve articles and agenda's of who wrote them...that one was from Tice..surely the bearest of bears... I like the fact that the comments on this thread are mature....I'm sure all parties have some sort of agenda...I'm not currently in AMAT...but I do have USPIX probear fund and djx sept & oct puts....at the 11,200 & 11,600 level respectively: and those are my only positions in the market. I realize this could very well be a losing position for me, it's hard to call the tops of bubbles.....I'm 85% cash, all in FDIC insured bank money market funds...I think the best strategy is to wait till the market does crash badly and then buy in on a cost averaging plan that takes into account that the bottom may be very low.. I believe the market is so far overextended i can't resist taking that above gamble though...if $$ comes out of it, I plan to bank most of that as well...4.75%-5.2% interest. The current Barron's has an interesting article (Trading Points),a full page on General Insurance Company being forced into the regulators last week & why...I brings some of what I've been talking about, and you can make your own judgement about the source.. I guess the "agenda" of my postings probably reflect what positions I have...so the above info is the best way i know to answer your question good luck to you
