>> please check my math

Gottfried, the math is correct. But I think the point here is that P/S ratio really is a range, and not a single number. I guess that was pretty obvious already. And the current reading is well within the range.

However, the forecasting aspect of your calculation is in where in the cycle we are at this time. It does look like the trough in sales is behind us, and future Q's will show higher revenues. I sure hope so, for my financial future.

As everyone is saying, Cisco's report today will shed light. ANd AMAT's soon will show even more about our place in the universe ... er ... I mean semi-cycle.

I glimpse some green on cnbc ticker. I hope it lasts.
