What do you think of SUNW....she has looked nice in the naz carnage....pe is now reasonable, future looks bright........good products, loyal customers, nice PROFITS, although we hope they get nicer as economy improves.....1.5billion dollar share buy back and etc.....I have some ......also have 03 leaps...want more, but she hasnt dropped to my $14 buy level...plus, I'd love to grab some more of those 03 35's......man, watch those little suckers....they go up and down 25 - 75% every time sunw blinks...great trading opportunity's........anyway...looking at beaten down techs....have plenty of speculative crap..........now time to slowly and cautiously add the tech beaten downs that we know will be here ten years from now......that allenalias dude is one smart fella......I dont care if your a bull or a bear...it's the individual that counts, and allen is a class dude.....anyway, he isnt saying this could last years, only that we should be open to the fact that it could.......I think he makes sense...I hope he is wrong and we rebound...the sooner the better...but at least this past year has taught many of us to never say never...so I am staying open to the fact that the bear could hang around for 10 months or ten years...but eventually, the bear will go into hiberbation, and at that time I want companies that will not only still be here, but will be leaders and will prosper..........anyway......goodluck and happy trading.......as I said, I am loaded with seculatives...no more for now, but am looking at adding beaten down tech quality...but will wait for price to come down to me...or I'll pass.......I am not letting this market run me...I will run the market...I get my price or I dont buy, simple as that.
