RE: "IMO it is under valued with respect to KLAC and NVLS."

I own AMAT, KLAC, and NVLS, and they are the 3 semi-equips I have been buying and selling in 2001. I have short term reduce exposure (sell, sell covered calls) targets at 55 for AMAT and NVLS and 65 for KLAC.

I would appreciate a quantification of your above valuation statement.

TIA

Don any rally above 590 the SOX has to be considered a breakout move. Similarly anything above 46.58 on AMAT as well. I had zero semiconductors showing up as oversold on my screen last night. My point is simply that while we know a recovery is coming for the semiconductor industry we do not know how robust that recovery will be. In essence as nice as it is to have these profits I will be watching closely for overbought conditions.

Meanwhile.. lets celebrate!

<<It has been quite a day so far - AMAT just hit a new daily high at 44.90.>>

It was indeed a great day...but the stock to cite may no longer be AMAT. For example KLIC (surprise!) was up almost 12% today on ~4X normal volume and obliterated its 52-week high. The stock has ~doubled since 9/21/00 and has been a leader since I started the 'Hubris-SEM' portfolio over 15 months ago:

KLIC +43.1%
KLAC +22.5%
ASMI +19.5%
LRCX +18.5%
NVLS -7.9%
TER -12.7%
AMAT -28.2%
AMKR -32.3%
ASML -43.0%

Group -2.3%
