And we will overshoot on this bubble just like all the past bubbles

IMO, you cannot call this a bubble by any measure, although that is what we constantly hear in the media and on these message boards. A bubble is a mania, a total dislocation from reality. INTC's Q3 projected increase(after yesterday) is greater than any of the past 5 years, including the so-called bubble years of 1999 and 2000. Additionally, we are going to surpass the IC unit volume of 2000 THIS YEAR! Prices are down so in dollar terms so we will be quite a bit lower by that measure. But show me any area of technology where they are selling more units this year than in 2000. It is happening this year in the semis, and yet we are at at third of the valuation we had then, and people still are calling this a bubble. I don't see it. I do see good times ahead for the sector, especially once revenues start flowing in earnest and the low headcount allows for great profitability. I do not believe this profitability has been priced in even here in many names such as LRCX and VSEA. Time will only tell whether I am correct in this or not.
