My Army radio call for stuff like today was "WHISKEY TANGO FOXTROT, Over?" (Phonetic alphabet - you figure it out. <g>)

Let me check if I see the data - BTB is *way* under 1, falling/accelerating; we're hoping a major equip customer (Intel) simply *maintains* cap spending ... and AMAT bounces from just under 47 to nearly 50 (after opening at 44.5). That's a 10% lift off from the open.

What am I missing, here? It looks to me like a bounce after *bad* news - unsustainable short-term. Not that I'm complaining ... I'm completely LT long at this point. However, I *do* prefer to understand the inputs to a move like this. (I'm also looking at another chance to do a ST CC move, *if* I'm reading this correctly.)
