ILOGY (from today's watch list) Reports Results for the Quarter were $0.12 versus $0.09 estimated.. Again this is not a 'sure thing' but should be watched early in the morning. Usually the earnings plays take off without regard to the market climate, but at this juncture they should not be held through earnings as anything can happen, but if you watch them carefully AFTER they report they will give you a better and surer buying opportunity. Basically with this market your best bet with 'earnings plays' are BEFORE they report on anticipation (AOL, CSCO) and AFTER they report if they beat estimates as they will be snapped up by mutual funds and institutions. Remember 'street beaters' will come back for more and more gains. PARIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--August 4, 1998--ILOG S.A.
