AMAT ...and...market share...

I believe some caution is advised here....

Market share is like counting worms in small can.

If five companies made the same product they would use five different methods for determining market share...and they would be..

1) Dollar Volume
2) Unit Volume
3) Past six months sales
4) Installed base
5) Future orders

What does concern me is a a mention that mutual fund inflows for the month of January were the lowest in 11 years.( only $3 billion) With this low of a cash flow (into funds and tech stocks) added to a weak earnings picture, a strong business recovery could take place with bo stock price appreciation.

I suspect (no available proof) that so many people got burned by the stock market in the past year that sitting on the sidelines is the only mental state that they can endure.

I think that this will be a year of making money . "The Hard Way"

Regards, Jerome
