Now Brian, tell the truth: you wrote that story yourself, right?

Shame on you for tormenting the bears like that!

Brian, no self-respecting bear will even look at that story.<g> It is true, though:

According to the SIA, global chip sales have
consistently increased on a month-to-month basis
from August through December since 1994.

Modest month-to-month gains were made in the
Americas (3.4%), European (0.7%) and Asia-Pacific
markets (3.1%). Sales in Japan decreased 2.2% from
July, showing the continued impact of currency
depreciation. In yen, chip revenues declined only
0.1% in Japan.

Cymer at 7 1/16

That's not that much higher than the first batch of AMAT LEAPs I bought. Hmmmmm.......

At some point, this stock has to shout VALUE, loud enough for someone to hear. If anyone were looking for an acquisition, Cymer would be a lot smaller bite to swallow than AMAT. The decline below 15 makes you wonder if there is something hidden and horribly wrong with the company. But, no, all the small semi-equips have been flattened. Bill Gates or P. Allen could buy the entire industry, if they wanted to. Another disproof of the Efficient Market Theory.

Are you still buying?
