Gottfried, You're right, she understands. I suspect that most folks here understand this as well. This certainly isn't the world of dot-coms. There's currently no argument that I can find about Applied's long term positive prospects. The buy & hold strategy should provide above average rewards over time. I'd like to participate in those rewards and I definitely fear missing that probable sharp move up when it begins to happen. While it appears the majority who hold today are willing to ride it out at this point in order to lock-in the eventual move back up, I think I'll wait a little longer. I continue to believe AMAT is overvalued at current prices and could easily bounce around for awhile. With nothing but weakness in sight for the sector, I'll continue to play the bad news bear whenever possible. Good luck to you. AdvocateDevil
