... eh twit ... not to beat on a dead horse ... but revisiting buying stocks at target prices ...

... from my February 5 target list (as well as one of the four I am still very interested in owning) ...

Sycamore Networks <SCMR>- one of the very hot optical equipment networking stocks - founded and managed by the same management team that founded and managed Cascade Communications into a very profitable story for many investors (not me - it was before my awareness) - has some of the top state-of-the-art products and a wonderful future - also important to me is that it is located less than 20 miles from my home. I have confidence in them and met their President, Dan Smith during some CEO interviews I did in 1996 - Dan is sharp - their two optical technical executives were recruited out of Lincoln Labs, which is part of MIT - highly respected company and management team.

SCMR
price, 02/05/01, 29.00
target price for July, 2001, 18.00
actual price at the close, 04/05/01, 9.06

... will I buy it now? ... look at this chart ...

siliconinvestor.com

... is it a good buy now? ... I do not know ... but what if I buy it now, and it goes to 4, and stays where there for two years? ...
