You DELL Bulls need to lighten up a little. Sell a little DELL and take a vacation or something. If I didn't know better I would think DELL has been in the craper all year long...like CPQ. >>then why do you waste your time here Every so often someone posts an informative post or link. I don't loose sleep on my investments. Money wise I own roughly the same in both DELL and CPQ (sharewise I own a lot more CPQ), although I've been lightening up on CPQ recently. Finally, the market doesn't care what I think...I go with the flow. I don't fight the trend. DELL stock may be overvalued, yet it continues to go up. Thus I continue to stay in. Doesn't seem to be so difficult a concept. I have no preconceived notions as to where DELL will go in the future, yet under the circumstances I am very wary. When everyone says, BUY, BUY, BUY...its time to rethink ones investment carefully. If your long term holder...don't sweat it. Yet I'm not, and I've been investing long enough to have learned that a stock just doesn't go up. BTW...CPQ has gone up 7 points the past two weeks. That's about 25 DELL points.

You people crack me up. The name "Clogs" comes to mind. In 2 weeks DELL has gone from $73 to $94 (intraday high today) adding somewhere in the neighborhood of $13.4 billion to its marketcap--now worth close to $60 billion as a company and some of you think the stock will go up forever and ever. Everytime someone comes into this thread somewhat bearish you all freak out and begin this childish namecalling internet taunting BS. Some of you people probably do not know anything fundamentally about DELL. The only reason you all own it is because you think it goes up everyday. What if DELL misses a quarter? Last quarter DELL made $250 Million for its shareholders--(thats not too much BTW). Jeezus, for a company worth $60 billion---talk about tons and tons and tons of good news built in here! Not short nor long right now---I play DELL all around the playground. Just keep in mind that DELL will not continue to add $13 Billion in marketcap every 14 days like it has in the past 2 weeks. Cheers! PS--Shorting DELL has been about the WORST investment idea in the 90's. It seems to me DELL goes thru cycles of movements. The stock moves way up on huge volume, often times retracts 10-15%--then dies and lays low for about 1 week. Then bang--same cycle again. Clearly calling a top in DELL has been a losers game in the long run. However, as we near $60 billion now--the game becomes less and less intriguing on the long side.
