JeffreyD, suckers rallies are tough... they require a continuous string of suckers to buy on upward trail that is perceived to be leading toward a cliff... wouldnt it be wiser to allow such a suckers rally to stall, then short it?

this rally has been meagre for AMAT, much greater for NVLS (in % terms)... based on spontaneous combustion with tons of guesswork analysis, whorish cheerleading, lowered earnings, warnings by AMAT itself, and good cause for downgrades... ever wondered why a house lowers earnings then does not downgrade???

you are the one buying the vapor... if you profit, feel as good as a dumb but successful thief... if Teri and others profit from declines in line with deteriorating fundies, she can feel as good as a violin player who plays the same song twice

and if some stay on sidelines while this stabilizes, then they are the wisest of us all !!!

I agree this is or was a suckers rally... I believe houses sold millions of equip shares, knowing from their Asian offices how bad it is GOING to get... what does your Asian office say?
