buxx... that's what people were saying in '95... but it kept on falling... the reason is simple 100 million shares costs $2.8 billion but is only a few days of heavy trading volume... look what's happened to intc since they announced the buy-back... the floats are just to huge and the liqidity immense... remember net traders own tech stocks....

Re:stock buybacks I would be shocked if they didn't do this, but who knows when or at what price they would accelerate any existing programs? I definately want to heavily invest between this point and 20, with no reserve below. In my own situation I would simply raise cash below 20. The time is coming when my favorite quote will change back to, "now is the time to get rich. It just screams at you." If we get our wish and amat goes into the teens, I am removing the pc from my office so I will get no numbers until after the close.
