Nikon Precision is expanding DUV stepper production at a record rate. This is completely consistent with what is actually going on at Nikon and in the industry: www2.loomisgroup.com You can ask the engineers in the trenches for yourself who'll all tell you that the rampup to DUV Lithography is on schedule, on track and all systems go. For example Bruce Bockius a field service engineer employed by Nikon Precision, Inc. where he is currently assigned to support an Intel semiconductor plant. Intel is investing billions to implement DUV Lithography that incorporates CYMER's excimer lasers: europa.com There are some desparate short sellers in CYMI that have just recklessly DUMPED 3+ million shares on the market in a matter of a few weeks. The stock is down for that reason - and that reason only. CYMI will continue to have rocket ship to the moon business growth and demand for excimer lasers has never been stronger. CYMI will be a $65 stock in the not too distant future. At $65 CYMI will still be cheap. Good Luck To Each And All Curly ~~~~~~~~^^ [6.6] ....> [_]

BillyG: 500 steppers each at Nikon, Canon, ASM Lith = 1,500 lasers shipping capacity in 1998. "A" team did you hear that? The way things are going you might do 1,000 lasers in 1998 and not reach capacity for steppers. Well maybe it does make sense to postpone a share buyback with the $190 million of free cash on the balance sheet and do another production facilities rampup to 1,500 instead. Let's see at 1,000 lasers CYMI does earnings per share of $2.50 and the stock price hits $140. I'll take it! Good Luck To Each And All Curly ~~~~~~~^^ [6.6] ....> [_]
