Matt, I think you are right. IMO coms will break through to 34 on Wednesday. Let us hope for the best. I am not sure where we are on the buyout rumor. I hope that is not what took the stock price from 25 to where we are. If it did we will see 25 before we see 35. Good luck. aps

Matt, >>depending on sales, gross and operating margin growth rates reported<< Last earnings, I remember these were scrutinized. There was a lot of confidence that margins would most definitely improve. This was the consensus of the analysts. I gathered that operations were so off-base last January, that it was obvious they improved last earnings, and still could easily further improve efficiency this quarter...like I said, mainly because they were terribly inefficient in jan/feb, not to mention last 4 months of '97. Looks like COMS tape action is picking up. S.America looking steady....banks are looking so-so. Japan banking situation may be getting a lift Monday and Tuesday. Also, a big plus is that the House rejected showing the Clinton video. I take that as support for Clinton. Looks more like he'll just stay in office and get a severe wrist slapping. joe
