Loki, basically I just focused on one number - that's the price-to-sales ratio. It dropped to 1.1 now for cpq. That's an extremely low ratio for a money-making company. Usually no company will have its PSR drop below one unless it's on the brink of an operating loss or if it's going into a very high debt/equity ratio.

coms' psr dropped to 1.2 and voila it's back to 1.7 now. I have seen this so many times. Even amd has a psr of 1 right now.

coms and cpq both have stash of cash and no long term debt.
