Micheal Murphy isn't sitting on 25% of his investment either. I like R&D also. A stock buy back doesn't cut anything. You buy it and block it back out to Michael Murphy at a discount and still have more for R&D than when you started. Some people don't realize that many people cannot afford to wait for six months for their stock value to increase. I know not a person on this thread would have stayed in for the drop or hung on if they thought for a minute that they would have a long period of dead money. What would the point be? Not just dead...a substantial loss. I for one did not come in at IPO and I have every right to feel my investment has been unjustly threatened. I have been called out on margin (maybe I shouldn't have been there) a couple times and made other adjustments. I don't like complacency. If Cymer treated their business by saying..."it will get better", but did nothing to improve it, it would fall. Thank God they don't. That doesn't mean I should take a "whatever happens, someday" attitude about my money. I feel like I need to help myself and others. Good luck to those that don't need money or increases in stock value. I am sorry to be such a greedy soul. Best to All Bruce
