RE: "What fraction of AMAT investors listen to the Conference Calls?"

I was certainly one of those listening today. I can understand why some folks choose to avoid CCs, today's call was about as long and drawn out as they get.

Jacob... >>>: Why anyone would buy at these levels is beyond me.<<<

Its not beyond me or a lot of other investors. Consider this.

1) Buy AMAT one hour after the open.
2) As of today the AMAT DEC. 37.50 calls are worth $5.20 and the Dec 40's are worth $3.60 to $3.80.

This simple one month play is better than most CD's on an annual basis.

The program is to buy and cover immediately.
