What I'm saying frank is that $48.50 in July was easily justified based upon AMD's production and financial performance at that time...The steep price decline since that time has occurred during a period of general market concerns and general negative market sentiment but AMD's level of production and financial performance, contrary to what you may read into its price descent, has actually improved during this interval...AMD, plain and simple, is stronger now than when it was at $48.50 in July...For this reason, it won't take long, once the inevitable rush for AMD shares begins precipitated by some currently "unknown" event for AMD to once again test $48.50...I'm only half kidding when I say that based upon AMD's current fundamentals, relative to other tech stocks, a price of $120 can be reasonably rationalised much more readily than can $20... I, for one, will not be surprised by an AMD upward price explosion within the next 2 months...but for now, let's just get a close above $21-1/4 which sets the stage for a test of $24-3/4!!!
