>>Whats your take

I think this is another selling opportunity.

I don't think the market took Alan Greenspan's speech correctly. Over the past couple weeks short-term interest-rate futures had already signaled a rate decrease but stocks were coming down hard anyway, so that's not news. Therefore I think this very impressive rally is a correction of the oversold condition.

What the market didn't take to heart were his comments Friday on slowing growth and the Street's unrealistic earnings growth expectations.

I think it's too early to be buying for the long term, though of the names you mentioned Rambus' chart looks good to me.

That said, even though I stayed in cash, it took all the discipline I could muster to keep myself from buying today! It sure was tempting, but I'd rather be late and confident in my decision than be lucky at the bottom.
