I think the story is going to repeat over and over again during Q1 98. And tech companies are particularly vulnerable, for they usually trade at P/E levels of 40 or higher. If earnings come down by 20%, the P/Es can easily go down to 20. That means, the "P" part of the P/E would decline by 60%! Well, if it is any comfort, it is that LSI has already come down by more than 50% from its summer highs!

For those who have been spoiled rotten during this phenomenal bull-market, these things might come as a surprise. But this could also be a valuable lesson. It all depends on how one takes it...

Dipy.
