re:PE. You pay more for a quality stock like ORCL. You can have tons of cheapo Munis at dirt price. Are they really cheap? Some cheapos like IFMX does not have PE @ market cap $1.31 bil, are they really worth $4+? I don't think so. You have to look at other factors than just PE. How risky is it? ORCL is so solid that you can sleep well at night. It won't drop 37% over night unlike IFMX.

Re; Lane's role. It was good for ORCL and Lane for 8+yrs. The question is, is ORCL going down without Lane? I don't think so. LE has been "hands on" for the past 2 yrs. If LE resigned ORCL today, I might have to reconsider ..., although nobody is indispensable. I'm sure LE will groom somebody to replace him when the right time arrives. We say in Korea, "Once you crossed the river, don't try to carry the boat with you for land travel. Leave the boat behind for your next trip."

Have a nice holiday!
