>>>I hereby challenge you to a duel. I will wager the value of one share of Bay's stock at its closing 1997 price that BAY will have a higher percentage gain (or, less of a percentage loss) from 1 Jan 1998 to 31 Dec. 1998 than will CSCO. Email me if you are interested in accepting my wager.<<< Larry, I challenged him to a gentleman's bet along the same lines, except with ASND. In fact, I left that bet open to every person on this thread and the ASND thread. Of course, no one accepted because they very well know (they just can't admit) that CSCO is fully valued and unlikely to return much in excess of, say -- 25% in 1998 (with a buy/hold strategy). On the basis of % returns in 1998, BAY will outperform CSCO, as will ASND and COMS. In fact, if someone were to purchase ASND shares at 25, that person will be able to sell them for 100% return sometime in 1998...I'll go on record as of the 22nd of Dec, having said that. If he wouldn't accept a gentleman's bet, there is no way he will accept a wagered one. Style Pts.
