Perry,

Yes. But for Lam Research's pre-announcement it has been quiet so far in equipment stocks. We're headed upward order-wise in the industry sector, How fast? Faster than the analysts currently assume, judging from anecdotal evidence of actions by suppliers of parts & components to the equipment industry. Honestly though we will probably not make "huge" profits in 1997,as we'll have the drag of rising interest rates through the summer. However I cannot predict when interest rates will flatten out, so I'll hang onto my equipment stocks.

I vaguely remember AMAT's 1st quarter earnings to have been announced Feb 14th, so about May 14th sounds about right. Pay attention as it is usually a good options play....

I do not know what a "quit time" is- what is it? Legally you can pre-announce bad earnings as soon as you'd like- generally the sooner the better so as not to set yourself up for a shareholders' lawsuit....

Sincerely,

Doug F.
