re: "rah rah thread". Chris, I don't disagree there is a degree of rah rah on this thread but by and large I believe it is populated with people trying to discern news and views salient to the future of the investment. I think saying a stock that has already dropped around 15 pts will drop another 10-15 is really putting your money where your mouth is. I, personally, dont see it going that low, even from my TA of it. I believe we'll see sideways motion for some time now, perhaps Aug before the next rally. But low $70's??? Well?, it's your credibility guy! Walt

Chris, when you have proven that looking at a chart gives anything more than a random chance of forecasting the future I will agree to call it analysis. In the mean time I will continue to characterize as neomysticism applied to the stock market. In the mini-crash last October we had a good dose of that nonsense posted here. We had dojis and crows, and a fair amount of ursal excrement scattered around. I am sure you are well-meaning, but in my opinion this is all meaningless crap. The Nasdaq has been hit fairly hard for the past month, but if you look at Dell it has done quite well. This is a volatile stock, with a beta of around 2.2, which mean it is more than twice as volatile as the rest of the market. Had you bought Dell at its euphoric peak of 53 late last summer you would be realizing a 55% gain at this point, and the driver has been industry-leading earnings and growth, a superb-looking balance sheet and an impeccably executed business plan. And what does your "analysis" tell us about that? What does your "analysis" tell us about the state of the capital markets? I reiterate my challenge: show me statistical proof that your "analysis" means anything. TTFN, CTC
