It has been 43 trading days since MU came out with those very bad earnings of just 4 cents. Every time MU is about to announce it's earnings we get these people who feel that the current earnings are so very meaningful. These people seem to look at the history of a cycle type company like Micron and do not understand that Micron's stock is a future discounting device. But we will again get these people talking about current earnings as so important. Oh! Well ! I post a message like this as each quarter nears an end. But it never stops this "WOW" about current earnings.
