Eric, RE: Cisco has a Looong way to grow here. The datacom and communications markets are going to be a lot bigger than most people realize. ...and there was nothing in the Barron's article that would dispute that contention.

Eric, what did you expect them to say, "all you little individual investors, whom we care about so dearly for investing on your own and not giving us your money to invest so we can get even higher bonuses, should know that we are going to sell 50% our XX,000,000 shares in the next few days because we think this stock is dead in it's tracks for the foreseable future and we can reduce our holdings and still have CSCO appear to be our #1 holding. So please go ahead and sell to lock in your profits. Oh, and I hear that they other funds are planning the same." Nope, unless you believe they are the last of the true altruists. They would tell you everything was rosy and sell into the strength. Their Morningstar Rank and 1/5/10 year returns are more important than how they appear on CNNfn. Why should they care. Your average 401(k) couch potato can't remember who the MF manager on Moneyline was last night.
