Speaking of AMAT, Justa had an excellent call back in mid June, the last time when AMAT was trading at its most recent high of $98:

Yes, I remember that BTB report. I didn't hear anybody here complaining about the reits from Cowen and DLJ on the heels of that report. No, all I heard was the sound of institutional investors looking for the exit at that point and the stock has drifted lower ever since.

AMAT may well get another run up in the coming weeks but I am not betting on it. I currently have no position in the stock.

**Last OT, I promise**

Justa,

You are doing fine things there with your skills. However, I never questioned what you do outside of SI, I only criticized your thread. I was, and still am, only concerned about those who will try to suppress others right to speak. As an aside, many dictators around the world who suppress speech also have a "second-life" so to speak, sponsoring orphanages and the such to look good in the public eye.

Your spending time to help others is noble; no question about that. Your silencing others is not.
