Great posts as usual Curly. Someone mentioned that the SEC might be interested in seeing those and others as well, but that would undoubtedly be a waste of time since we all know who the SEC represents and it's not Joe Public. I would welcome comments about the following with regard to IBM's new copper technology; specifically, how Cymer's technology will interface with copper or not at all? dailynews.yahoo.com Many thanks, Allan

"OT" Stock Buyback Sorry to clutter the thread, but knowing the quality people on this thread I feel confident that my question will be answered properly. When a company buys it's own stock what happens to the stock? Is it retired permanently or is it just "owned" by the company to sell back into the market at a later time like any other investor? Perhaps it can be used as in conjunction as stock options for employees/management. Does it reduce the overall stock available and therefore reduce the number of shares that are used to calculate P/E ratios and the like. Perhaps it is a combination of my thoughts. Thanks for any clarification anybody can bring for me. I figure that stock CYMI bought a while back at $15 could be sold into the market to offset some new construction costs. Dusty
