Cary, going from memory, I think the 4 stocks you have been buying now include AMAT, ASML, KLAC and NVLS. From what I have observed over the past year or two, these stocks look quite strong with respect to tech stocks in general. They seem to be doing everything right and I would certainly agree that they should do well in the future.

I have owned ASYT, CMOS and LRCX in the past, but not right now. I had varying degrees of success and failure when owning them.

Two of the 19 stocks you list, ESIO and VSEA, are not on my list I have followed. I know the others you have listed have done well, for the most part, at various times in the past and present. I still like the top 4 you listed the best, however. Perhaps my biggest reason for liking them is their perceived strength for the long haul and therefore their safety.

Don

I am inclined to also recommend against an investment on EGLS

Good inclination. Their revenues should have grown if they were to hold onto market share in the 300mm world. Last time I looked, the last 5 Qs revenues didn't even add up to the revenue for the 6th Q back.

EGLS is losing market share - probably to Tokyo Seimetsu and TEL.
