Hi Brian, agree wholeheartedly with what you say >>>When the overall market trends down, buying on dips doesn't work anymore. But that's just my opinion. And you can bet that if things do really go south, I'll be in there buying Oracle because it's a great company. <<<< IMHO ORCL has crashed ala 87' and not dipped, so buying a stock that has crashed is much safer than buying a stock in this market that has only dipped. Today maybe was a good post crash dip to buy (geeeee I hope so because I bought some :-0 - bwdik Good luck

ORCL's other shoe has yet to drop. So don't rush in on this one unless you have an iron stomach to handle the uncertinties which lay ahead for this company over the next two quarters. NC's may be selling, but so what? I want to see the money.

Asian problmes are mainly a financial one. That is, many companies borrow too much, expand too fast. Now they have troubles paying their debts. Once new money comes in, the problems can go away as quickly as they started.
