Excuse me 'huge valuation & P/E'.

Andrew:
I beg to differ sir. Let me ask you this, would you pay a P/E multiple of 103 for Xerox which is expected grow its operating earnings 16% over the next 3-5 years or would you rather pay a P/E multiple of 79 for Dell which is supposed to grow its earnings between 35-50% for the next 3-5 years?

Andrew- Go look at Dell's performance the first 2/3 weeks of every quarter for the last 5/6 quarters...Dell rarely does anything...it drift down.....it holds ground...rarely does it go up....

Last year, after earning announcement in early Feb., Dell didn't do anything until mid-April...it then went from 63-66 up to 98...

Fundamentals still strong....momo guys will come back...long-term investors haven't gone anywhere...haven't you seen the lackluster activity in all tech stocks (save internets) lately??

dell is broken????? where, how...pls explain....

you close a position lose .75....you violate the basic rule of investing...not to lose money...why did you buy in the first place????

have courage in a long position...shouldn't be in it if you think you are buying at an all time high...

keep in mind when an issue like dell splits, it doesn't mean it will trade half the volume and move up or down proportionately...doesn't work that way...good luck, ed a.
