"Kings are good but it looks like they take it on the chin a little harder than gorillas during a downdraft." Followed by: Not so look at Siebel. Ouch. Perhaps it's better to say very long established gorillas don't go down as much. I have no empirical evidence to support my thinking, but if I had to make a bet it would be that the companies whose market cap decreases the least in a downdraft are the mature enablers. Siebel is neither mature nor an enabler. --Mike Buckley
