Tin, I wish we would go to $25 and get it over with. At that point CPQ would become a screaming buy, and the shorts would be running for cover. We would bounce back to the mid $30s and feel better watching the stock recover. NW

Now still stand strongly at 30, does it means that you have reached the bottom? It means the plucky heavyweight fighter is hanging on to the ropes, using all his professional guile to survive: willing strength back to his unsteady legs, waiting for his sore, bloodied head to clear, forcing his swollen eyes to focus, taking big searing gulps of tobacco-laden air into his aching lungs, digging deep into the angst of his childhood, to find again the motivation to carry on through the pain. Across the ring, the analysts are punched out, their pasty face and weedy torsos don't threaten anymore, instead of the tribal blood-lust and the battle cries with which they had begun the fight, he sees doubt, uncertainty and hears their whimpers as they beg to leave the ring. If only he can steady himself, if only he can get to the centre of the ring again.
