Scoot, My crystal ball did not work so great on that one. But if you look at my post, exchange2000.com I did say that a "bad hair day" in Asia would undermine the crystal ball viewing. If you recall the past 2 days have been bad hair days in Asia to say the least. I also gave percentages which is the only way to gauge confidence level in a prediction like that. I think this FASB rule 128 diluted vs basic deal has everyone confused about earnings. This could not happen at a worse time as everyone is trying to size the impact of Asia going forward. This is creating excessive uncertainty and confusion. Look to see the talking heads trying to clarify this dynamic in the media over the next week or two as earning season tapers off. More crystal ball - as for $40 a share this level will be crossed by mid to late Feb. Cheers. BTW: My positions is XLNX are the worst performing in my portfolio. The crystal ball has worked better elsewhere. But that will not keep me from trying. XLNX has a fundemental edge right now and it WILL be refelected in the stock price. Knowing WHEN is the crystal ball stuff.
