I just can't believe they are buying that F&^%ing PIG!!!!!! Sickening, JUST SICKENING! (Long Term it will be just fine but it is still very annoying. I don't feel like suffering through the mess)

Gary, I don't think it is LU dragging down the sector. It is the long bond. Every time the yield ticks up, the large cap tech stocks take a beating. It just nicked 6.11 then fell back to 6.10. There might be a massive program dictating the action. The LU fall today appears more than what would be due to some analyst making a dumb comment about the PBX business. I have a lot of respect for Mr. Fun, but he isn't the only smart guy bullish on LU who could have spotted the comment for what it was. Mark P's post is spooky. I am waiting to see how this turns out before making a bigger commitment. Clay

Panic not people. Lu and CSCO always have their individual outperformances during different parts of the year. As far as I am concerned, this is a good buying zone. 62 -63 1/2. CSCO is up 14 pts. from its recent lows of 56, LU is up only 4 pts. It is only a matter of time before it catches up. Remember, Lu traded at 79 3/4 when CSCO was lanquishing at 67-68. So just chill, and if got extra money, buy more.
