Re:
AMAT has aspirations of being a $20B Annual revenue company.
In that context, or even in a $10B context, a single $100M order isn't a significant part of that revenue target.

I really don't think AMAT will be $20B company during next several upturns. EVEN $10 seems like the number that could be difficult unless AMAT really capture a lot of market share in the process diagnostic and inspection area.
This is the reasoning behind continuous streamlining of the
business by NEW CEO: Try to downsize and make it more operational efficient so at least the share price can
rise during the next upturn.
