<<I didn't say "nil risk". I said minimal downside risk and a lot of upside potential. >>

These were after the Q1 earnings and cc on 11/7:

You guys really think this will go below $30? I'd say that is a low probability considering that we are in the typically strong Nov to Jan month. I'd say most likely scenario is the stock hovering around $30-31, but holding above $30.

Then after a close at 29.63:

Your guess is as good as any. Who would have guessed that Cisco stock would tank after such a stellar earnings announcement? I didn't. I do believe that the downside risk at this point is close to nil. The stock market is down in anticipation of a couple to several soft quarters ahead of us. Fast forward 3-6 months and this stock will be much higher.

So you are right. You didn't say "close to nil" risk of going below $30. You said it about going lower than $29.63.

Chances are decent that Cisco will close below $28 betweem now amd the end of this year. I also agree with you that Cisco will be above $30 sometime in January.

By the way, the fear is getting greater in the general market.
