<OT>Enterprise S/W - making an observation on the stock prices and asking. BMCS and VRTS are not really in the same biz as MANU, ITWO, ORCL, PSFT, BAANF, SAP, CPWR, et al. The other areas are more specialized - TMBS - construction industry, HBOC, SMS, INC, RX - medical industry are holding up better. I'm just waiting on the sidelines and the take-no-prisoners market is very thorough. They expect Y2K spending to drop 10% next year and I saw a report that small Y2K firms may have trouble with lawsuits. I usually follow KEA, CPWR, CHRZ, IMRS, SYNT, and MAST in that area, the latter three hire Indian programmers as a large part of their business. |
