It took me a long time to learn that one should NEVER, EVER buy this FAT HOG over 30. Tigers don't change their stripes, leopards don't change their spots, and BIG FAT HOGS don't change their slothful FAT HOG ways. El

Andreas, August 6 to August 13 buyers were ripping PCs off the shelf in PA due to the fine Governor. He declared a back to school sales tax holiday on PCs and related equipment for that week. Also think PC sales decline, if there is one, should not impact CPQ as hard as Dell. (I now own some Dell calls.) Ashole Kumar is making another general Mr. Doom market projection on the sector.

I think this will bottom out in the next day or two. I am showing a trendline that has CPQ lows getting higher. Using these lows as the "lowest" point CPQ can trend, it's right about where it should be...maybe slightly lower. In addition, stochastics are showing just about overbought. A nice rebound should push it up to 36 or so in the near term. But what the hell do any of us know?
