John I'm sure most suffer from the same problem. Regarding Kopin yesterday. The downward price movement surprised me in that the earnings cut was old news. Guess people just were not paying attention. I never like to see the price dive like it did and I had my finger on the trigger at 22. A break below 22 (an approximation of the 50 day moving average) and I'll be on the sidelines. I also was happy to see it only closed down 1.625. I delude myself into thinking that about 600k shares bought yesterday at levels above 22 is a positive thing. I would just guess that all the bad news is out of the way now and we will be seeing some positive announcements soon. Take a look at this new development. Don't forget to stay still for about 15 seconds: geocities.com

Strong Buy from CSFB: July 9, 1999 - 7:29am Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation Back to Search Results CSFB Tech Daily Friday, July 9, 1999 Kopin (KOPN-$25 1/8-Cap $0.3B-Strong Buy) Joel Pitt, 1st Consumer Electronic Product Using KOPN CyberDisplay Has Arrived. Aggressive Pricing Results in Lower EPS Est.FY99E: $0.22 (from $0.44) * JVC digital camcorders using Kopin's CyberDisplay are now in consumer electronics stores. * Kopin is pricing its displays aggressively to gain sockets quickly and solidify its microdisplay leadership. We believe this is the right strategy but it's likely to result in lower than expected 1999 revenue and EPS. * We're lowering our 1999 EPS estimate to $0.22 from $0.44, our Q2 estimate to $0.01 from $0.03, Q3 to $0.06 from $0.17, and Q4 to $0.13 from $0.22. * We believe that availability of CyberDisplay based consumer products will change investor perception of KOPN's display business from negative to positive, driving share price appreciation. * We maintain our Strong Buy rating with a six month target price of $30.
