Interesting remark about Chinese and American kids. I never considered that Chinese didn't want their kids to be self supporting because of the education thing. I figured Chinese-American kids go to school, then go to Chinese school, and then also go to work. Chinese school is what they do INSTEAD of working after school. I hadn't considered that. My comment about Chinese child labor though was a bit 'tongue in cheek' (purposefully absurd). According to anti-WTO web sites, UNICEF is charging that the IMF is responsible for the death of 6 million children per year. Regarding SUNW, you posted you were looking for a stock to short? Traditionally, that's not a winning strategy. The P/E is high because future earnings expectations are high, AND because it is an extremely well positioned company with world class management. -JCJ
