RE: CPI - just shows you how goofy this "financial culture" really is. The "Core Rate" is just another tweekable gizmo, why they put faith in it, who knows" . I think you are right, revisions come out, or some other "news" counters, yadda, same old. Let's just ride the ripples (or drink the Ripple) DELL is a great stock.

N7 - why do you expect cpi to be adjusted down next month? no matter what, the mkts WANT to react to any news that even hints of infl'n...the mkts have been strong for so long, and everyone is looking for doubt that the bull can live on.

rich - maybe my futures quote was wrong...the #s are jumping around a lot...i didn't think most of the premkt quotes were down that much before...now they are down a lot more.

i still think we need to stay calm and cool...this # is just one data pt...the fed doesn't react to only one piece of info...and, so far, nothing else points to infl'n...

naz...cpi et al

it's all a numbers game, sometimes manipulated by incompetence of government agencies.....no government stats are "finite" numbers...they merely are statistical surveys....

important to keep in mind that we are approaching an election year....and the incumbent party has been successful with the mantra of "it's the economy stupid".....so, much like nixonomics, we will see clintonomics....silly game, doesn't send shudders through long term investment goals, but raises the hackles of the short term trader...

dell will be subject to overall market pressures, seems like it couldn't hold +44, i believe the recent price action is healthy, base building,backing and filling,gaining strength, and giving reason that the stock has the ability to double when it gains "favor"....look at ibm...

Re: "You know what really bothers me? Next month they will come out a revise downward the CPI"

Yeah didn't Dell just lower their server prices by as much as 17%? Wouldn't that contribute to lower consumer prices?
