I SEE AMAT GOING between 20-26 by the summer time maybe lower if we have a panic selloff. BUT, BY THE END OF 1999 i see it going over 100 dollers. the key with semi's is when they get momentum on the upside plus solid bookings eps are predicable for 6-18 months cycle. when institions see that they pile on because they know they don;t have to be worried about eps. thats the key .right now is the opposite.-thats why i'm short

Marc, When I made my $40 high projection for year end '99 it was with the caveat that the stock would split prior to year end. The implications of that are the stock would achieve $80+ as a high for the year, but by year end, after the split and the typical round of profit taking the $ price would be $40 (split adjusted).<VBG> I was wondering if anyone understood that when I origionally posted my "prediction". I think if GM or someone would care to locate that origional post it affirms what I stated at that time. As for the titanic/iceberg analogies, I like to inject some "color" into my posts the thread to break up the monotony and once in a while I try my hand at an attempt at humor, sometimes maybe not to successfully.<g> Anyone who has read my posts for a while understands that I use analogies, a lot, to allow folks a different perspective to think about. Seems like I do reference waves/surfing, cards/poker, Storms/weather, ships and icebergs, and guns/powder a lot. Maybe I'm just trying to reference everyday comparisons, or maybe I'm just weird! <VBG> Still waiting patiently, Studly<VBG>
