I've got my shopping list together and have been nibbling with options. But this selloff is not even in my calculations. Just have to see what develops in the next few days. I imagine that there will be quite a few margin calls coming--and more selling.

Book value on Applied is something like $8.83. With almost all of the other semi-equips trading under or at book value, AMAT has many more points to go. While it is #1 and institutions love it, so it may keep a premium to book, it may not be much. I'm looking for $15.
