Lee,

I think you should keep in mind that fear is as strong as greed. Many people think that since the Asian economies have taken a dive, they will no longer buy any PC's next year. Not only that, but no one will ever build any wafer fabs again, since the Koreans are obviously up to their collective backsides in debt, and won't be able to buy all that nice AMAT equipment.

I bought AMAT when its PE was 16 thinking it was a no-brainer. I subsequently dropped to 12, which was sickening, but then popped up to PE of 40 (at its peak this summer of a post-split $40/shr). Too bad I sold on the way up at a mere 50% profit.

The point I would make is that INTC will definitely earn at least $4.00 a share next year, and more like $5.00. It will rebound as this becomes apparent, and if you buy it now you will look like a genius. Unfortunately, you may see 60 on the way to 100. That is the nature of the market beast.

Food for thought,
GENE
