RE: The most recent BTB was .8; you must guess how much lower will we go?

Guess: 0.65 [after perhaps a teenie-weenie uptick in April.]

Brian, the kid didn't even mention AMAT. His scenario is entirely
consistent. That does not mean it will happen. Joe Sixpack may be
smarter than we think.

Yeah, Brian, thats the thing. jtechkid spends a lot of time here with his doom and gloom, and believe me I see his and others point of view- there is a lot to be concerned about. But why here? AMAT is not at all over-valued relative to so many other candidates if you you are so inclined to puts or shorting. I mean, even within this sector AMAT is the last company i'd bet against.
