The Nasdaq is starting to turn; perhaps we'll have a dead cat bounce this afternoon. IMO, the worst is already past; ORCL will be back over 30 by next week.

I have no doubt that Oracle has a bright future. I would have bailed out a long time ago if I believed differently. Regarding your comment about stupid paranoia, all I'm saying is that people are in the stock market to make money -- that INCLUDES the analysts. Do you think they're not invested? Do you think they are not privy to inside information? If you do, than you are not being realistic. I'm not crying, "Conspiracy!", I'm just using common sense. If I were paranoid, then why would I invest at all? I'm simply saying that we have to get back to basics (earnings numbers, p/e multiples.. you know, the REAL numbers, not bullshit whisper numbers and analyst speculation) and stop letting all of these outside influences drive the market. Part of being an objective investor is realizing that this kind of manipulation exists.
