Don't know how low it can go today-----just want all the sellers out soon. I hope we get a pop late afternoon.

"reading the "mood" of the market" no i can't do it. my game is to buy leaps from time to time, usually on value line top picks. most recent purchase emc jan 2001 call. as far as i can tell microsoft has beaten the street the last six quarters. so has the cfo been telling the truth or has he knowingly understated the true condition of the business? now he says the company still expects to meet consensus earnings estimates of 65 cents a share in the third quarter. is this the truth? is he sandbagging like a lot of people on this thread think or is it really the truth and he and his cronies are unloading the stock (during the permissible trading window of course) since if they only meet expectations stock will tank like oracle did today? remember these guys or gals are out for themselves--not us. just my thoughts. regards
