For the last 8 weeks the group of 41 semi-equips has gained 90
percent while the SOX-X has gained 72 percent. All but 5 of the
group, SMTL, SFLX, CFMT, UTEK and WJ, are up over 50 percent. 17 of
the stocks are up 100 percent or more, and 3 of the group, AFLX,
ASYT and ASEC are up over 200 percent (note they all start with the
letter A :). AFLX and ASYT switched 1st and 2nd place again this
week.

The group also, for the first time in quite awhile, closed above its
1997 low point by 2 percent. It now "only" has to gain another 88
percent to reach its high point in 1997. Talk about a group coming
back from the dead!! - it still has a long way to go.
