This is a very cheerful article on AMAT.
But something is not clear: "If this proves true, the company would have a $7 to $10 forward price/earnings ratio"

What the hell does that mean? P/E expressed in terms of $????

Edit: after reading the thread further, I see that JuliusM raises the same issue. Seeing this in an article makes you wonder the seriousness of the article...
