Kirk, perhaps if "expert" is defined as trying to be the first one out the door as you yell "fire" while dropping a smoke bomb... That is not too far from the truth, sadly. IMHO, the guy yesterday from UBS Warburg who set a $38 price target is equally questionable. And if one truly thought all AMAT was worth over the next 12 months was $38, why would he put it as a "Hold" since it was trading in the mid 40's? I believe there will be a time(perhaps 10 years from now), when these "experts" are rendered useless by the medium we are now on. BK
