Thanks & take care

Bomboocha -
sold all your DELL for CPQ??? Yikes. eom
Why mess with strength?

Take a look at late 1992. CPQ was on a roll that would result in an 8X increase in stock price over the next 2 1/2 years. Dell was about to drop like a stone, losing half its value in a few months, and not recovering to previous highs until nearly 3 years later. THAT was the time to sell Dell and buy CPQ. Of course, if you picked up Dell any time after summer of '93, you were pretty much on the ride, that was Dell's last big mistake.

I don't know how long you have been following these stocks, maybe this stuff sounds like the great crash of '29 to you...
