NW..... I see traders jumpin' all over CPQ and scoopin' it up @ 40 or better, impeachment or no. I've got plenty of shares and am not used to buying at these "inflated" levels, but have decided to grab another 1000 @ 37 or better. May never get that 1000 and hope I don't. El

RE: I think the market has already priced the proceedings into the market...

Hi NW,

I have not followed US politics very closely, just enough to get a feel for what markets might do....

From your post and others on the thread, would I be correct in saying that there is an extremely small chance that good old Bill will actually get impeached? The House and then the Senate has to vote on this still, right?

In this case, the four votes that took place last week (Judiciary Committee) were in fact a lot of posturing on the part of the Republicans, hoping to scare Bill into resigning?! He has demonstrated that he is way to savvy to succumb to that sort of pressure.

I too think that the reaction to this entire debacle has already been factored into the markets.

Of course, I have very little knowledge of the political machinations of the US, so I could be way of base...
