We must factor in the HUGE jump in expectations built into LRCX. Before last quarter's blowout, the expectations for the current quarter were at 43 cents. Now they are at 62 cents, or a 40% bump after the blowout. I hate to be negative but I have a feeling that even meeting these inflated numbers will likely cause a sell off. The media has traditionally looked for the clouds and not the silver linings when they view the SCE sector. We'll get much more talk of a peak if they miss!

It seems to me that they must exceed these already inflated expectations to get any additional respect from the street but I hope I'm wrong on this point!

EDIT: also, the stock is up 60% in the last year... Will we see sell the news, no matter what the news holds?
