I just looked at the expected earnings for MSFT for next calender year (nasdaq.com -- analyst info on EPS). My feeling after looking at the graph tells me that there must be some analysts that have to raise earnings estimates early in the new year, first or second week of January - OR- Are we just going to hear the company make the same statement about raising estimates for the March quarter in their next release (just like last quarter)? Something tells me analysts will be doing this on their own. To me this will would result in quite a pop in the price to least 155 to 160 by earnings if the current market conditions hold up. IMHO

Hey Ed, I know we are getting OT, but what the Hell, its the weekend. LU is so big that even Bell lab is going to have a hard time moving the stock as much as Cisco's will move in the next 5 years. I sold my LU because I felt I could do a lot better with the dough in Cisco. LU has finally got to where it should be, although I think a PE of 107 is rich, compared to Cisco's 86.(The Street.com #'s). I am sure you will do well with both. Everybody on this board seems to be in the same 4 to 8 stocks, we are either all smart, or we will go down together!
