CSCO won't go up as quickly as it did last year, but it will run up this fall. Once it breaks thru 70 (probably within the next few days) it will run up to 80 quickly, and should run to 100 by the end of the year. The stock has been in a classic CSCO holding, which always precedes runups. In the long run, look for average gains of 30% per year. If they make big inroads into optical, that percentage will be low. INTCfan

Mornin' Kid, I picked this up from the CSCO thread: You might want to take a quick look over there every once in a while. If you do go over there and find anything interesting bring it back over. &hearts; dealie To: Yogi who wrote (39712) From: bambs Thursday, Aug 31, 2000 9:51 AM ET Reply # of 39715 looks like a break out coming if csco takes out 67 1/2...could retest $70 in a hurry. with the fall rally being expected it seems we should be able to get over 70 bambs

Hi there Kid! About a year and a half ago I let myself be swayed and sold my Cisco on similar comments. A number of analysts were saying that the multiple was too high and they could not keep up the high growth rate that they had to that point. I bought back my shares and more from Jan to April of this year. The net result was that I had to pay taxes on the gains, and had to pay a lot more for the stock to get it back. It has still done great since buying back in. I will not sell my Cisco again unless something changes in the story. If their earning rate really does slow or some new innovation comes around that will displace them as a leader or something similar. JMHO! Ritch
