That is what helps an optimist amongst us. I certainly hope that you are right. If so the stock my only go to 10 and not 6 as another poster has speculated. Suma

>Well, a $25 million shortfall in sales at a 50% margin would reduce the net by about $12.5 million which would be about $0.23/share (with 55 million shares out) >Roughly speaking. >I don't think it will be good but not as bad as some are saying. robert. i hear you. but if the CC is to be believed -- yeah, i know, another leap of faith -- then the shortfall this quarter is $0.27 (for a first quarter EPS of a penny). add to that another $0.28 over the rest of the fiscal year, and i get $0.70 for FY99. (using $1.25 as the previous consensus estimate.) give a multiple of say 14 or 15 -- is that much too generous? -- we got a $10 pair of gloves on our hands. -chris.
