Yeah, I don't see that $60 happening until after we split 2/1, and even then we might miss it.

lml,
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... Whadda think? I hope the poor guy covered at $72, just like we discussed a number of weeks ago.

Consider myself dragged back in <bg>. No, I did not cover at $72 (I thought someone once said "you can never buy at the low and never sell at the high" <vbg>). I actually covered very close to break even.

I do think that Oracle is overpriced (not arguing whether Oracle is a successful company, is relevant to the Internet, Larry is better than god <vvgb>). However, the current momentum in the B2B stocks is not something that I, or anyone else can fight (look at gARBAge $40B cap = 250x sales, no earnings in sight).

This is very similar to what happened last fall with the eCommerce stocks. I think that six months from now a lot of these stocks will be very cheap. We shall see.
