JM, So the whole sector is 'puking'! Soooooooooo....! It'll get better! The market goes up, and the market goes down! Actually, if you look at the 'long' term, there is no reason for DELL to drop! Short inventory term, BTO, no channel, large customers buying ( although there may be a little delay due to funding the Y2K problem in industry )! If the orders don't come in, DELL doesn't buy parts (no inventory buildup), and the workers work 8 hour days. Can you really explain the drop? Maybe financial houses making the market so commissions can be made? (Now there is a thought!) Regards, Ken

How come you weren't here bragging on the days Dell was up big?

<<I told all you DELL bulls that this split could not have come at a worse time!>> Yes, you told us this on Friday, March 6, AFTER Compaq warned and Dell was lower in after-hours trading. Any moron would know Dell would go down after Compaq warned. If you are so good, why not commit to a stock price for Dell six months down the road?

<<< down $12 today presplit. Can anyone say $50? How low can it go? Watch and learn!>>> Don't listen to the bears, Jeff. That downtrend is only one day old. In the last 365 days Dell has gone from $36 to $138 1/2 as of Friday, and that is only 1 3/8 below its all time closing high of 139 7/8 set 5 days earlier. I don't use much TA stuff, but I can't see any 10 day,50 day,200 day moving averages, black crows or head and shoulders on that curve that shows any downward indications. What was required to move Dell down those few points was the warnings by two of the major tech stocks which cast a pall over the entire industry and two downgrades of Dell in one day. Dell is now positioned to resume its upwards course of $0.30/ day on average until some company fundamentals change. That does not help a daytrader much, but almost always if Dell is held for two or three months it will be up. I have owned Dell stock since 1993, and been invested in stocks at least a little bit, for close to 50 years. Nothing I have seen or owned has ever come close to what Dell has done and still can do for a shareholder. Sometimes I get a bit a bit lucky and buy msft or yhoo at the right time to catch a move up, but even then it was just a temporary move. If you want investment tips, keep an eye on some of Greg's notes, like mspg or thrx, or ????. Or perhaps use Hank as a perverve indicator... buy Dell, aol, yhoo.(gggggg) Good luck Sig
