A little more good news: Analyst thinks that MANU and other ERP companies will have good '99. (Observations by CBS Marketwatch at the Nationsbanc Montgomery Securities conference.) The down-and-out companies that sell business software may well rebound in the second half of next year, as spending flows again after being frozen due to the turn of millennium, analyst Bob Austrian said Thursday at the NationsBanc Montgomery Securities tech conference in San Francisco. Additionally, the companies will have "easy compares," meaning that the big-ticket software makers will show big growth in year-over-year comparisons, he added. He pointed out that many of the largest providers of so-called enterprise resource planning software have come in short of analysts' expectations for licensing growth in the third and fourth quarters. That list includes PeopleSoft (PSFT), Baan (BAANF), Manugistics (MANU) and SAP (SAP). Austrian singled out Oracle (ORCL), Siebel (SEBL) and Remedy (RMDY) as good buys. Doughboy
