Thanks Iris.

I am pretty much in agreement with MER. Just because selective chip makers could see order pick up of ~ 7-12% next year doesn't mean they are rushing to upgrade their existing fabs or add new ones.

Some positive sentiment plus momentum playing & short covering are skewing the facts in the short-term.

Ten-Fifteen points back, AMAT, NVLS, TER, KLAC were considered value plays. Good job to those who got in. There coule be another 5 points in them but then the ride is over. Something fundamentally-related could happen to set them back 50-75%. Another weak BTB may do it.
