Robbie & All,

I think Cramer has hit on what's odd about the semi-equips right now. There isn't enough skepticism (as evidenced by market action). This is similar to the reaction in early '96, everybody kept expecting a re-do of '95, which as we know now didn't happen.

Excerpt (hope he doesn't mind small excerpts):

But now the market is coming to its senses. Now some fear
is coming back to the equation. In fact, we have seen some
Morgan Stanley High Tech Index put buying for the first
time in a while. We have seen some call selling, a rare
occurrence of late. Indeed, some people are making bets
against this market.

Again, that's good news. Go back to the tenets of this bull.
(For details on that, click here.) We need to see skepticism. It is not a sign of skepticism when bonds go down big (in
price) and stocks go up. It is not a sign of skepticism when
Teradyne goes down but all the other semi cap equipment
stocks go up. It is not a sign of skepticism when the market
ramps regardless of the news.

Robbie,

I agree that DFW is a good place, except for rush hour and they could have bigger trees. But I'm a tree nut and I like 'em old and big. -g- And we love the Rangers too! I think I cried at the game where they announced Mickey Tettleton's retirement (really).

regards,
Teri
