Brian, Today's Barron's Weekday e-mail is bullish on AMAT... Excerpt: Hambrecht & Quist analyst Gus Richard, who classified himself as a bear on Applied about six months ago, says he has recently done an about-face and is "growing really excited" about the stock.

"Managers should be using this weakness to build a position," he argues, claiming that Applied's stock could go as high as 60 in the next 12 months.
