Here's a good reason why computers are down today. From a Raging Bull poster: By: Profile_14 Reply To: 10665 by mainst_20 Tuesday, 28 Mar 2000 at 2:48 PM EST Post # of 10669 We are experiencing Window Dressing In my opinion, this will continue for the week as mutual fund managers tweek their porfolios to show just what they want. In my opinion, it is a gift to those with reason to believe that CPQ will do well this quarter and year. Think about it. How could they hire a CFO and have him embarrassed on his first public conference call with investors if they were not reasonably sure to meet their numbers, especially after spelling it out to the analyst community in late January? Anyway, I think it is a no-brainer. 16 cents is my guess (consensus estimates). Any trading gains will be offset by charges for discontinued operations announced last quarter and before.

I only have 1000 shares. Not to big time it but, if I lose $30K then so be it! Not much of a chance at that. I don't want to be a scrooge either. But, slamming the company as one is holding is quite counter-productive. I didn't like the fact someone took the opportunity to get a cheap shot in regarding "starry eyed..." nonsense. Those people should just spend all day pm'ing each other if that's what they "need". Sabre!
