Sales of Oracle's one-size-fits-all software for handling a full range of business tasks, from filling out purchase orders to handling human resources, are still increasing. But the company's applications growth isn't keeping up with more specialized competitors such as Siebel (SEBL: news, msgs, alerts) , which is eating Oracle's lunch while racking up triple-digit profit gains. Oracle's total applications sales increased only 25 percent in its February quarter.

Robert Scott: What we can't do is predict market tops and bottoms.

Some of us do a fair job at identifying them. By the way please don't spam your thread on MDD. This is your second time, that should be enough. See guideline number six in the thread header...

Irony, if everyone think it's time to get in or out at the same time then the opposite becomes true (at least these days). You get oversold or overbought conditions. Oil stocks down today. Am watching to add more on weakness. Expect gas prices to dip a bit but the profits are still there.
