My concerns are this Kosovo issue and a preannouncement from DELL. I am not too worried about CPQ or IBM as I think any warnings from them are already factored into the Market.

So then, how to time an ATHM purchase?

That's a tough one. Half of me would argue its not worth trying to time, just jump in since I believe the stock will outperform the Market over the long term. The other half says that if we get any more major negatives in the market (like a DELL preannouncement) then they will be coming in the near term, so give it a week and you should get the right opportunity to buy in.

This is a tough one, but my gut tells me this sell off is close to being finished. My big concern is DELL right now, however, and that's a tough one to predict.

Take a look at buying XCIT if you are confident in the Merger as it currently provides a nice discount to where ATHM is currently trading.

As I always say, a lot of this depends on your investment objectives. I have owned MSFT for six years (never sold a share) and cannot remember thinking back regretting a purchase price I paid on my shares. I expect the same from my ATHM purchases over the long term.
