Better watch out!!!! Dell is on a downtrend<gg>.I think they're going out of bussiness. It was actually down from yesterdays close at opening but those suckers are buying it so it may go up before too long. There are a few techs troubled<wdc-cs> and that means dell is for sure on a downtrend. Wdc Is cheap today but I still think over the next couple of qtrs that it will turn around..I sure hope so .... Csco got upgraded so that will help techs some today. ML said is was an accumulate in the 40s but a buy in the 90s<gg>. The guys are too much fun........ Hp also had some good news along with amat and copper top chip eqp being introduced today..Amat up on the news but cs bogging networkers down but not for long.

3 , I agree timing is difficult .... but that is why I would not risk being long on any stock with a run-up like Dell . The market is full of instant overnight casualties in the in high fliers e.g. Altera , today down 20% ! I monitor risk/reward in my stocks , what is the upside for Dell in your opinion ? What about the downside ? Earnings is the only thing holding Dell up and at 69 cents in their best quarter that translates to $2.80 if they can extend that over 4 quarters . As I have mentioned already , I have a stock which made $2.40 in the latest quarter but its shares are selling at $3.55 . This is a turnaround situation and the former high was $385 . Now that is the kind of risk/reward I like , regards Brian
