I really wonder at this point if the market isn't just waiting for ASYST to pre-announce a bad quarter. I've seen this with both PRIA and SFAM: both stocks were going nowhere, then rallied after preannouncing bad earnings reports. Apparently, investors were waiting for the stocks to preannounce before committing funds to them. ASYST has pretty much said it will meet its quarter. So perhaps investors are waiting for preannouncement of some other kind of bad news (such as drop in the b-t-b ratio) or they fear that Taiwan will be dragged down by the Asian flu. Paul
