Hey but the broker pimps are recommending PG. Pile in. Sell tech, buy PG. Idiots every one of them.

Your PG question was Tangible Stockholders Equity 1997 was $13 Billion, now in 2002 it is Negative slightly. Negative Tangible Stockholders Equity despite Billions of profit.

Good question. Of course you know it all was due to purchases of other product lines.

Didn't help sales much though. 1997 was $8 Billion quarterly. 2002 was $9 Billion.

PG pile in. AMAT pile out. You kow how this story turns out.

And their LT debt went up well over 100% over the same timeframe while sales went virtually nowhere. Excuse me while I rotate out of AMAT and into PG.
