Today's Commentary: 03/17/98 (aice) Market activity for the past 24 hours is focused more on discussion of future prospects for "recovery" versus any real trading or demand. With no change in steadily increasing availabilities, buyers and resellers alike are concerned whether or not DRAM will fall to new 52 weeks lows in the short term. Similarly CPU trading has been limited to select high end P-2 devices as open market prices adjust to April's scheduled changes sooner than usual.

Larry, IMO Once MU broke the 33 support it then became the overhead resistance. With every attempt and failure to again break thru 33 makes the 33 level that much more difficult. 30 and 28 3/8 should be the next supports to be tested. DavidG PS: I am still waiting for 31 for intraday support to be tested<g>
