Steve, Read your own post. Take all the "ifs" and "what ifs" and attempt to assess the probability of all of these becoming reality. Short term, I've no idea what will happen to any stock's price. Nor do I much care. If I'm invested, I'm invested for the long term. Period. And my longterm (and midterm) view was well reflected in my CYMI thread posts. My shortterm view is irrelevant and usually wrong as well. ... still patiently for intel to buy atleast one mattson cvd machine, steve I'd settle for a few dozen strip machines every quarter. ;-) Ian.

Steve, I hear your very same scenario for the market and the economy from many, many others which is probably why it will never happen. This time last year and the year before, these same people were gloom and dooming it because of the Asian crisis. They were predicting that the US economy and the stock market would eventually tank as the crisis "washed up against the shores of the good old U.S. of A. They were dead wrong. I support Ian's scenario. There is a tech revolution going on and it's creating a whole new economy. That's why the old economy stocks are all in the toilet. You can buy MO if you wish, but I prefer to stick with MTSN, SVGI and AMAT. That said, I agree that, at some point in the next few months, there will be another correction, and some of those ridiculously overpriced internet stocks will get slaughtered, just like they did last summer.
