I am sure this question has come up many times but...when is AMAT expected to report? If someone could be so kind, and save me from searching through the many AMAT notes. Thanks!!!

To Every AMAT Bull, The stock market will continue to be volatile for sometime due in part to Analysts and Brokers. The Analysts are making money for their companies thru commissions as the market bobbles up and down. Same for the Brokers who has been lowering commissions for trades and spurring demand for stocks...What we can do as AMAT investors is that we can take advantage of the volatility by buying say close to 30 and selling as the stock nears 37. The ideal place to trade is in our IRAs and 401Ks.

Tito, After Mondays incident, I talked to sveral of our employees participating in 401K. First, nobody moved their money out. Second, a lot of them didn't even know what happened. The point is, the flow of 401K money is consistent and will even increase specially with the new incentives on IRAs for College education, etc. Where do you think this investment will go after the mess in Asia, and other part of the world. Do you think they will invest in International Mutual Fund? Pretty soon the fund managers will be squeezed with the tremendous amount of cash they have from 401Ks or IRAs, etc. Remember, they can't keep the cash and will have to buy stocks. Kumars research was very good news. Another good news is all the tech ysts are downgrading the tech sector. Meaning, we can't get any lower. The next call by this ysts will be an upgrade!! By that time the stock is close to peak value. Regards and glad to hear from Kumar again. Roly

Tito, Who cares what Joe Granville says? These wall street types are constantly being asked to predict the market, as if they know any better than us. For example, everyday several of these pundits can be seen on CNBC making their predictions while being quizzed by the staffers. If one is constantly making predictions, then every several years he/she has to get lucky and accidentally be correct on one. The fact that Granville was predicting bear market for so long, while the bull continued, indicates his prediction's value. Gosh, there are only two choices: bull and bear. If you guess one and are wrong, then the answer is obvious. So what if he now says bull market! No offense intended. Stu B.
