An even STRONGER buy rec.... AMAT

dailynews.yahoo.com

Once again Wexler shakes his head in disbelief as "analysts" continue to fuss and worry and refuse to acknowledge that we are on the verge of another roaring bull market in semis - led by semi equipment makers - the best of which is AMAT. Even Jim Cramer is scratching his head a little and making overly cautious comments (I guess he won't be pounding the table until AMAT solidly beats its plan 6 quarters in a row.)

New investors can thank CEO Jim Morgan for making the following comments:

<<''Despite some recent favorable developments in the world economy and semiconductor industry, the outlook for our business is uncertain,'' Jim Morgan, the company's chairman and chief executive, said in a statement.>>

Much like CompUSA's CEO Jim Halpin's pessimistic advice to analysts on the conference call ("Gosh, you know - even though we beat estimates by 100%, this computer business is just a pain in the ass and darn it, we're biting our fingernails over next quarters numbers...so don't expect too much...okay guys?") this will give small investors a wonderful opportunity to continue to accumulate the stock at reasonable prices while Wall Street contemplates its navel.

When I first recommended AMAT at 22, the stock was being given away. At 38 it is still cheap. Don't even think about getting left behind.

I continue to buy AMAT myself and strongly recommend it.

Bill, I can't complain and I do not regret. Think over it!

In the light of fledgling IStocks and in part, small caps, I've sold it and I sold any steel factories at quaint prices to go where the market is.

The Pinkish MALL delivered, and I honestly wish you that CPU will come close once a day. Finally it is always the portfolio equity that counts.

as for AMAT, even CNBC didn't help ...

C.

Btw.: I take your line, saying: Internuts should not be shorted (they are the industry of the 21th century, at least for now)...

My only short position is KTEL destined to cover in the zeroes.

Bought and installed a new 56k 3Com Modem from CompUSA.
Got connected at 31200 bps .
My largest holdings in order NSCP, SUNW, COMS are on runs, yea :o)))
Still am sitting on a mountain of cash from Zit short.
My question, Bill is should I just double down on my current 8 stocks.
Or just keep buying other new stocks.
Is it better to own 20 stocks or concentrate my money on 10 companies.

Sure is a Nice Day
Michael
