book to bill came out ten minutes ago. note that testing/assembly (of which cymer is included) equipment is way up and that past shipments are way up, so much so that they are causing the b to b new orders to post lower than would be otherwise Message 2997346

Nasdaq slips slightly on tax-sales, profit-taking NEW YORK, Dec 17 (Reuters) - Nasdaq stocks closed slightly lower Wednesday as investors took year-end profits and sold underperforming issues for tax purposes. The Nasdaq Composite Index unofficially closed down 5.64 points -- or 0.36 percent -- at 1547.36 on unofficial volume of 760,163,281 shares. Advancing issues edged declining issues 2,255 vs 2,237, with 1,104 issues unchanged. ''It was hardly a change in this volatile market, we didn't see anything dramatic,'' one trader said. ''It was just all profit-taking in the end ... and we're definitely still seeing tax-selling.'' Another trader said, ''It looks like a lot of the carnage is over, we hope, in some of the small tech stocks. We're seeing some buying.'' He added, however, ''I think (going forward) it will be a choppy market.'' Aloha
