Think I will try this again. Can anyone help

Prices below are as of yesterday

I am looking for understanding with the following table:

Current 52 Week
Price High High
---------- -------- ---------
NASDAQ $1,779 $1,788.00 -1%

AMAT $33.31 $54.18 -39%
SEG $21.56 $54.13 -60%
INTC $76.34 $102.00 -25%
CSCO $64.56 $68.50 -6%
MSFT $80.38 $86.00 -7%
AMGN $60.22 $69.38 -13%
DELL $62.31 $71.94 -13%
MCIC $48.91 $49.00 0%
WCOM $43.00 $43.00 0%
SUNW $43.91 $53.31 -18%

The NASDAQ is just barely off of its high, yet except for
MCIC & WCOM, most of the above stocks are noticeably
off of their high. Where is all of the strength coming from?

TIA

Doug

G,

It appears that when the downward book to bill is established, the top to bottom has been 7 months at the most.

Our top was 7 months ago.

The bb was not as high at it's highest as it usually gets.Then we have seen a slow, shallow drop.

As I've said before, I don't pay much attention to charts, but this is interesting too me.What do you think?

You seem more bullish lately on the equips.. Am I reading you right?

thanks.
