True, but I still think QCOM will be a survivor and wish I had never sold my shares...it held up well in the meltdown and looks strong right now......I was hoping to buy it back at about $15...thought I would have a chance when it fell into the $20's...but back above $30 she went.....also sold my nxtl waaaaay too soon....normally if I get a 100% gain as I did on nxtly, I will only sell half my position to get my money off the table but leave free shares to hold....with the market looking very shaky, I sold all my nxtl rather then half thinking I could buy back lower...no such luck as she is running up hard and I doubt she will be dropping back down to the $3's, or even the $5's for that matter....

good numbers from qlogic and IBM decent too... probably better than expectations anyway.

Is this what happens when an industry like tech recovers... things are choppy. I'm optimistic.

Bull market in pharma. From the July lows, mega caps MDT, PFE, MRK, JNJ, etc., have tacked on some nice gains. So give Barton Biggs a few brownie points. On a bad day like today, these were mostly up (or down slightly), and biotechs (not the fairy-tale kind) look OK, too.
Who says there's no speculation in this market? CHIR, market cap $7 billion, PE 61, keeps going higher.
I like the sector, just stay away from the make believe.
