I agree. I have to say though, EQU's comment about "soft mortality" was strange (and funny). Merrill Lynch can certainly be a flaky investment house. Over the summer they were pounding the table over Micron Technology (more than once). If they are such perceptive analysts then why did they not realize the commodity nature of MU's products. They may very well be the reverse barometer. rahn.
