I thought Sun hedged currencies. Perhaps not perfectly, of course.

Dear QS: BARRONS is starting to PISS ME OFF. I never did have much respect for them and this is the MOST ASININE list I have ever seen. It is so ELEMENTARY that a school child could prepare it, but it has NO INCLINKLING of the truth. Have they NEVER heard of HEDGING currencies? SUNW has ALREADY STATED they have the currencies well hedged and expect NO PROBLEMO. Also, being geographically represented is a STRENGTH not a weakness, if USA should drop off in growth EUROPE and ASIA may pick up the pieces. NO ONE argues that the INTERNET is far behind outside of USA and needs to RAPIDLY catch up if the World Markets are to have ANY CHANCE of competing with USA. Anyone who reads Barrons and makes an investment decision based upon that ERRONEOUS article would likely be making EXACTLY THE WRONG decision, and I dont mean just on SUNW either. Who in the hell is running Barrons? They go from BAD to WORSE. jdn
