I agree performance can be measured in many ways. But when you are dealing with a small share price say $6 for CY vs. $100 for DELL a 1 point move for CY would = an increase of 16.66% whereas a 1 point move up by DELL would = an increase of 1%. I don't want to play a semantics game which I am not trying to do here.

I want to play a bottom line game and measure it in equal amounts of $10,000 invested in each company on 8-31-98 then sell all three companies on 8-31-99 and see who returned more on the initial $10,000. You can turn it in to % if you wish. I'm just willing to bet when all is said and done that the actual cash value will be more in DELL and CSCO than CY and that's how I am comparing their "performance".
