The Weakness Must Be Bought
By James J. Cramer

12/8/00 2:41 PM ET

What a massively forgiving market! Yesterday National Semiconductor (NSM:NYSE) guides expectations down and today it is up
almost 20%. Yesterday Intel (INTC:Nasdaq) took away all first-half hope, and today it is up a buck and a half! Earlier in the week
Xilinx (XLNX:Nasdaq) and LSI Logic (LSI:NYSE) "blew up," so to speak. They are now up huge, just huge, and those prices now
seem like gifts.

I have a word for that. It's called "the bottom." Again, if you want to know why this market bottomed, I urge you to read my most
recent version of the checklist that I set up during the bear market to tell you how to determine when you could get bullish again.

Now, weakness has to be bought. Intraday weakness. Intraweek weakness, whatever. I feel strongly about this, because you only
get the moves like you have seen in a Xilinx or an LSI or an Intel at the bottom. As I predicted, you will hear and see many people
all over the place telling you that this is not true and that we haven't bottomed and that the Fed can't help even if they eases. And I
will tell you again, you are in The Odyssey. Lash yourself to the mast, stuff cotton into your ears and do not listen to the Sirens.
They are only there to confuse you and make you founder on sharp rocks where vultures will peck out your eyes and your innards.
