Little did we know at the start of the week, but this was
the week to be fully invested (long) in the semi-equips.
You couldn't miss making money - with only 2 exceptions. 34
stocks were up, 1 stayed the same and 1 was down. Those
are the kind of probabilities where even I can make some
money.<g>

8 of the stocks were up over 15 percent and 3 were up over
20 percent. At 20 percent compounded weekly, a person could
go far in a short period of time. The group was up 10
percent while the SOX only managed an 8 percent gain. The
last time this group sum was over 1100, it was the week of
10/10/97, a little over 2 years ago.

The weekly high point for the group in 1997 was for the week
closing 9/19/97 when it peaked at 1277. Since the group
closed at 1113 today, the group gain required to reach 1277
is only 15 percent away. Another week like the one just
past and we are nearly there.
