Howala, relax! You need to take the long view. The market is being driven by Lemmings who over-react on a predictable basis. The smart thing to do is buy on down days. Lets look at the facts. CPQ is expected to make $1.80 a share in 1999 before the revisions, so lets say now it is $1.75 (most anal-ysts attribute this weakness to the timing of the Pentium III switch over with people delaying their purchases until its introduction). This means CPQ is trading at 18- 19 x current EPS with a conservative anticipated 5 year growth rate of 20% (according to Zacks). This means that CPQ because of a short term timing issue has been driven down to a discount to future earnings. This to me is a buying opportunity.

:O)
