chainik..

This week Ive been buying up a few shares of PSFT, ELX, and CHKP, Im a little underwater in ELX and CHKP but thats expected as I have yet to commit fully to the long side.

I was short ELX (emlx) for the better part of the year and did fairly well with that position... Truth is I too often have a dilemma going shocks which I've been short in the past, but we must recognize that in any significant tech bounce high beta stocks rise parabolically, I expect ELX, BRCD, PSFT, CHKP to behave no differently then they have in the past when techs have surged...

At the moment im only 20-25% long.. bout 30% short with the rest in cash.. A fairly bullish stance on my part as I've been 90% short for the better part of 2002... I do expect to be at least 40% long @ NAZ 1175.. 50% long NAZ at 1100.. and 60% long if we fall below 1100.. I've also began purchasing drug stocks recently... MRK, PFE, and BMY to mention a few.. (MRK's announcement to authorize a buyback afterhours today should help those positions tomorrow).

Glad the info on KLAC @$61 helped... hope this helps as well..
