El: When you start sounding like that, the bottom is not far away.

Most tech stock investors are saying "why me", lately. Most think there is something unique wrong with their company. But CPQ's decline is not out of line with the decline in almost all other large cap techs. This is what a market correction looks like.

The mysterious "market" does not know anything about CPQ that you don't know. The question is what price are they prepared to pay for it. Today' price is excellent, many informed and experienced investors will have bought higher in the last few days.

El, been lurking and am butting in for one comment.
Re: Stock Performance
'Sell on a spike to mid-40s', these are the things that keep the stock down. Don't get impatient. IMO Let it run. Once they start to run they don't stop. Even after two years. Look at wmt, ko and even dell had about a yr and 1/2 where it had stalled.
