Thread, another negative for tech stocks in general is the skyrocketing price of SDRAM. This has got to really hurt the just in time manufacturers the most, but thankfully, it might put an end to the $400 PC. I suspect there will be a big dampening in demand for PC's. Petz

Mani Re <<<But most of the move was earlier in the day, it did not show up in the futures till about an hour ago. It usually is instantanious. quote.yahoo.com^N225&d=1d>>> I don't know about it being instantaneous but I think the nikkei morning session would have ended between 11 pm and midnite ET and 8 PM -9 PM our time. That puts it roughly when you saw the futures drop; in any case I do think its the problem. For once I wish the foreign markets would not follow our lead...things just get more twisted up. Furthermore I think the market makers are trying to create a correction so they can run stocks up (after the correction) and make better numbers. ted
