Slider, You didn't have to wear your fingers off on the keyboard. I thought I said the exact same thing in many fewer words! www3.techstocks.com

I've learned a long time ago to take an analyst's prognostications with a grain of salt, and stick with my own evaluation of a stock's potential. I can't begin to tell you of the many times I was swayed by the doom and gloom (if not outright disaster) projection by an "expert" and sold a stock that several months later hit new highs. This disinformation IMO is intentional. "They" can only make money by convincing us great unwashed to buy and sell at the wrong times! Trust them not. <g> My conviction is that this sector is a tremendous buying opportunity, and by slowly buying in, at lower and lower prices (since I can't time a market), I will be there when the tide turns. Just my take, FWIW. Good luck to all. Bernie, long and getting longeeeeer :-)
