I'm looking for ORCL to go over $125+ by year end. Summer is almost over, folks will look into "real" growth stock like ORCL to park till next yr q4. Investors now believe that "earnings do matter." We can't find stocks with real earnings and growth like ORCL any more. Look at the charts. It's ready for take off again. So I'll add more once it breaks through $90 for renewed MM. "What would it take to do that? " EARNINGS!!! Split can add a few up ticks, but earnings is the ticket, imho. later, InSook Prasad

Hardly: FWIW, I set a year-end target a few months ago, and stood firm on that target following the "Ray Lane affair." But by target, I mean achieving, not merely approaching, that level and then some (i.e. 100-105 range). Based upon this belief I wrote a fair number of Jan '01 110 calls at a premium of $7 the day before the Ray Lane announcement at premium. We'll she how she does. BTW, being August 30, and the 3-day weekend approaching, I think it proper at this time to drag our friend Marq back to the table. See Message 13988245 Whadda think? I hope the poor guy covered at $72, just like we discussed a number of weeks ago. That would have been a smart move. If he held, well, you win some, you lose some, but some people are just doomed to repeat their mistakes again & again, which unfortunately can lead to drastic results in the investment game. Cheers.
