RE: "This thread is filled with bearish(short term) bulls(long term)" Mike, You can put me on that list. Although AMAT is a favorite of mine for the long haul, I'm one of those who attempts to time the cycles by increasing and decreasing my AMAT position. At this point in time, I'm waiting for a low to buy. In the mean time I'll do a little swing trading. I feel we could easily bounce around for awhile with all the uncertainty and conflicting opinions out there. FWIW, I initiated a short position a few minutes ago (AMAT 45-7/8). I'll see if I can capture a few 5-10% trades while waiting for things to settle out. AdvocateDevil
