JDN, I agree completely. I sat down yesterday after i got home and took another look, not at the 'markets' or 'asia' or any of that other crap but at the companies I own and why i bought them. Basically i come to the conclusion that Coherent is still the same company I bought, has the same long term prospects for innovation, growth, and excellence that characterized it when I bought it. The announcments reinforce that. I almost like the fact that the R&D is 'hurting' earnings. That, in my view, should hurt earnings. I want to own companies so eager to develop AND market new products that they ignore next quarter in favor of two years from now. The lithography is positive and the partnerships are positive. I got up and went to my wife (who is completely uninterested in my investments) and said, 'you know, sometimes millions of investors CAN be wrong' (referring to the 'market). On this one, I am right and I have the patience to prove it.
