Gambler2, this is the first time I saw AMAT play dead for several days. I wonder if the Professional traders are listening to this Thread. When we were almost uniformedly Bullish, they drove down the stock hard; then when we were talking of buying in the 30s, they Yoyoed the stock in the upper to the lower 30s; now that we are discussing Short-term and Day-trading, they are shortening the Hi-Lo spread!...I guess if we follow Gottfried's plan to take a rest for the rest of the year, we will see some Fireworks!...Now, I won't suggest simultaneosly buying Calls and Puts or go Short in one account and go Long in another, for fear all the traders might permanently abandon the stock!...

Gamblers2, I think AMAT was holding good today compare many semiconductor ( KLAC, TER, LRCX, SFAM ... ) AMAT may stay around 30 to 35 range before it gets some upgrade. Some chip maker had downed almost 50% ( VLSI, CMOS, ATML, CY, SIII, SGI ... ) Because the out look is just weakness. I have not see the insider to buy or sell last month, any insider to buy or stock buy back will help the stock moves up then broker is upgrade, that what i see today on VLSI and XLNX. I really like AMAT, it is a good stock. Best Quan Nguyen
