Here's an interesting blurb. And depressing!

Charles Pradilla, chief
investment strategist at Cowen &
Co., said, while most of technology
is getting beaten up, investors are
just shifting their buying to still-safe
names. "A number of stocks just
keep going up because people
don't want to leave the market.
America Online is up every day
several points [because] people
are saying, 'I don't care what the
valuation is, if they hit the numbers,
I want to be there because I want
to be in the market, and I want to
be in technology.' " For the same
reason, investors have driven
Merck up 50% since the fall, he
said. "You're not talking some
small start-up but a giant drug
company, that is basically going to
hit its numbers and people just
want to be in the market."
