Grrgory; The Bugs on the windshield may have you confused .I see her double bottom..and a rally soon. So we don't see the same things..so what. Beyond all the snort term stuffy..earnings and inventory who are the people who look at her stock another way..and from another angle..just how many real shares are held by "who" and what did they pay for them, and what can we do to get them to sell them to us cheap. Yep there is another world, that could care less about the margins and all that razz a ma tazz..just who owns what and at what price..what else do they own..can we attact their other holdings, can we strip any body..who is weak.. Look the market for the most part is a ponzi scam any way, all that other stuff is window dressing and barkers for the bookies...if u don't see that how can you even guess were she is going next. In as much as you don't make or lose real money untill you sell or the compny folds, just what company in the tech sector has ever paid any stock holder enough of a dividend to warrant the investment..every one is in this, to gamble that the stock will go up and they can sell to the next sucker for more than they paid..what's that got to do with earnings..what stock holder ever gets any amount of any earnings..it's all a joke..but none the less some people will make money off it..some will lose..the bookies get their cut either way..they are not going to let CPQ die she too good to them ...if they force her down till volume falls off they mess with the hen that lays the egge..no way She will now be allowed to go up..tath way they get some momentum players along with a gang hell bent on shorting her..much fun, brokers soon cover short positions and send her back up, damm the inventory..or margins...start giving the computers away what do we really care..all we need is market share.. worry about profits latter after we kill off every body else, most of all that DELL...sorry no good compitition, with junky boxes , that IBM dumb gorila...we kill her too... SunW..hmmm we buy her next..stay in bed with Inntel..and MSFT.. who owns this stock..we strip them out, take over every thing, got to get stock down then up..or up then down..who cares.. profits..don't be silly who needs profits..does the U.S. governmant make profits..hell I got new plan..lets TAX the shareholders...:-) Ya we give away the stock..you just pay us a tax..and we let you run the company..mr EK that's not really a new plan..we already do that..they just don't know it.. EK.."How come novbdy teels me nothin.." Up Up and away..
