We're getting mounting evidence that the current semi-cap expansion cycle will run farther and longer than all the "experts" first thought (see NVLS' latest news). Naturally, this will be great for Helix. To Steve: If I were in your stock club, I'd be pounding the table (literally) on NOT selling HELX. The earnings numbers keep creeping up for next year, and I think they'll make between $1.50 - $1.70. Being conservative, and allowing for some multiple contraction for a sub-1 PEG, HELX shares could still double from present values to over $90 by this time next year. It also wouldn't surprise me to see a split in the first half of '00, and either an acquisition or dividend increase, since we know Helix management doesn't like idle cash sitting around. Times are positively booming and I expect HELX to crush all sorts of historical records over the next 12 months. This years 4/5-bagger was just the beginning! Happy Holidays everyone, and thank you HELX for helping make 1999 a little sweeter! BV
