RE:"You should never trust what the analysts are recommending. You should always keep in mind they are paid for their opinions and recommendations." Not to mention, that analyst are merely glorified salesmen.

More importantly, watch what they do, not what they say. Oracle was over valued, I've wanted to own it for a long time, but I am a value investor. No one really should have been in it over $30. But Oracle is a "blue chip" indexed mutual fund favourite. Hopefully it will go lower (sorry if anyone owns it), but data and databases are not going away, or declining in need. I will be going in full force when the momentum investors have sold out, and those same analysts are buying in again. And if someone wants to give me MSFT or INTC at a 30-40% drop, I'll take those too. O.
