RATL recovery in 98 ............................................................................................................ ratl will recover in 98 ...I don't believe Mgt will disapoint Wall Street analyst as they did with their acq expences in 97. I'am not expecting any ERICY acq talks ...the rumor that RATL may expand into an enterprize licence agreement with Ericsson was enough to spark the stock over the last few weeks. Until earnings are confirmed &/or an official anouncement of a deal this stock will trade between 9-13. Looking for 15-19 over the next two quarters. .................In reference to EMC ....I perfer to stay away from the hardware vendors. EMC just broke 200 day adv....may pull back to 20. I'd pefer to play Veritas (VRTS) on the software side to take advantage of the growth of NT servers storage market growth. Backup and recovery software tools support for multiple platforms and multiple storage vendors will be a better play in 98 VRTS over EMC ....IMHO.
