Niceguy,

re: AMD price and predictions

I think u are way off the mark on AMD price predictions and will continue to be so.

First, regardless of how well AMD does the overall market is a huge factor in stock prices. The current market looks risky. And its unlikely that we wont have another major hi-tech guy warn (in a diition to aapl).

Secondly, the market focues on the market leader for direction. If Intel warns about Q4 outlook -- guess what AMD will get tanked.

Thirdly, AMDs execution IMHO has been poor on the duron. The possibility is there for weak Q3 units. I cant see how they miss earnings but i can see top line being lite.

Fourthly, AMD has had a period where they have had the leading edge fastest product available. The PIV will take over the leadership/performance segment and this is a bad sign for AMD.

Overall the probability exists that you will seriously miss on your forecasts.

And unfortunately u will likely miss on your Jan calls and lose a bundle.

My advise: take a hard look at how wrong your predictions have been for last 3 months. And at least accept the fact that AMD will more than likely be well below $30 a share in January.

You and anybody else that is betting the farm on a huge run up by January should get real, and wake up from lala land.

regards,

Kash Johal
