Hi Michael,
very good point --people holding shares of AMAT
know that the recovery was brutal in 1998. Alot
just followed the btb and sold right at the bottom, then.
This is probably why in this cycle investors anticipated
the top by many months (top in May 2000 for stocks but only
in Oct 2000 for new bookings). Now they are anticipating the
bottom by many months. Nothing wrong with that. It may
not be rational, but that's the game big money is playing
this cycle. Too bad that this scenario seems to irritate
many on this board --the more rational ones!
