RE:"It is quite obvious that the markets are near bottom."

Isn't that what you thought "the third week of October" when you said that was the time to buy Tech? Seems to me the NASDAQ was about 600-700 points higher then...?
What happened to derail that "axiom"...

RE:"Your prognostication that they will soon go up is about as clever as your claim that you conceived of the idea that MHz sells"

Clever? The idea that Mhz sells (TM-McMannis) has been around for a long time, I just trademarked it and defined it for my own use.
The funny thing is that despite the P4 being a "funky, low IPC" chip, it's an easy sell because of those "really big" Mhz numbers...especially when it sheds RAMBUS dependency....

Scumbria, RE: It is quite obvious that the markets are near bottom.

Calling market bottoms (or tops, for that matter) is something that I have never seen anyone do consistently.

If by some quirk you have that ability, you are sorely minimizing your potential returns by playing around with individual stocks and options.
