re: dell opinion you don't see it overbought, i see it overbought...stock not going up, therefore it has supply feeding into it, only time you have supply that lowers price is in an overbought condition. no irrational fears, just technicals in a slow market...if irrational fears why some oversold/reversing bias issues as hwp,qcom,emc up today???? dell looked to be breaking out of 45-49 range on friday per your comment...it didn't......why??? still overbought, supply outstrip demand, it went down...no magic, basic mechanics of the market...been this way as long as i remember...........go back to my answer to your 8/31 query...nothing has changed...
