brian,
Strong close would be nice for the markets and amat. Maybe the Piper buy will get us some points if markets close strong? mike

I thought it was interesting that Piper rates AMAT a buy and KLAC a "neutral" based on comps with 1998 trough valuations so I took a look.

I look at Price/Book and Price/Sales at 1998 versus today and I see what he means.

Any reason to think these comps are less than meaningful?
