Glory Days In Chip Equipment
By MONICA RIVITUSO / Smartmoney.com
Dow Jones Newswires -- March 27, 2000

(This story was originally published Friday)
NEW YORK -- It's a good time to be a chip-equipment maker.

After hitting a low in 1998, the industry is in the throes of a bona fide upswing. New technology is being developed and shipped, revenue is increasing, earnings per share are jumping and stocks are percolating. These are giddy times.

I also remember IBD publishing glowing praise for semi equips and for oil service stocks just when those stocks peaked. I've never overcome my distrust of IBD after that and still have the clips somewhere.
