No, they weren't very accurate last year......I remember all those forecasts of a semiequip cycle that would last and last, at least through 2003, propelled by copper and 300mm and shrinks and endlesssly growing chip demand. Analysts (no-name or otherwise) don't tell you what the future will be. But they are a pretty good gauge of current sentiment.
