>>Finally, I look for a trading range to now set in and I still feel that the market as a whole is very overbought and could shed 300 to 500 points in a heartbeat<< I heard on a radio financial program called "Money Talk", that of four(if I recall them right)indicators, (others something like bollanger, macd)only the sentiment indicator would be in the right position for a correction at this point. Please forgive the vagueries.

Tim, Your voice of reason is very appreciated! I force myself into similar caution about the earnings as I feel: 1)CD has not yet started to sell like hot cakes and 2)we are still heavy in the assessment stage. Viktor.

Tim, <Therefore if the earning are just ok and the backlog has not taken a quantum jump... you do not want to be long.> Tim, Tim, Tim .... tsk, tsk, tsk. "You do NOT want to be long??" What are you saying? That people who bought in TAVA at 13-14 will not see a good return on their investment 6 month, 9 months ... or a year from now? I've always respected your input ... but this just sounds kinda ridiculous to me. Now if you were referring to people who want a BIG return FAST ... within the next 6 weeks ... I understand what you're getting at. But, longs????? I agree that this quarter (ending eom March) will NOT be monster earnings. ANYONE WHO'S BEEN AROUND FOR A WHILE REALIZES, AND HAS ACKNOWLEDGED THAT. Wonderware delaying their* product roll-out until Jan/Feb, with 30,000 bundled TAVA CD's.* Put us behind a bit. We won't see the return on that investment until THIS quarter (ending June). But NMS listing and new contract announcements could change the picture ... short term - make things happen faster. I was actually hoping that TAVA would pull-back to 12 so I could pick up more. Finally decided, it wasn't worth taking the chance to wait. So I bought at 12-5/8 & 12-3/4. Told my friends to do the same ... and sit on it ... until at least September. Did I tell them the wrong thing?? Quarter ending in June will be GANGBUSTERS ... imho. <Therefore if the earning are just ok and the backlog has not taken a quantum jump... you do not want to be long.> What do you refer to as "long"?? Please explain yourself further. Cheryl
