Robert/all, the following is I believe the latest tally of stock price predictions at the close on Friday. Is everyone that made one represented here? Looks like it......no...now...now....wait a minute ...there IS one missing. Yes, Stefan the WannabeBear, confidently chose 36. Jerome, please let's not forget Stefan and let's add his pick to the list! <gg> Jeff

***EDIT Seriously I believe Paul V picked 71 so he should also be added to the list.

Corrected & Updated List of AMAT closing prices for the 21st of this month.

Michael Bakunin........46
FLSTR97................48.5
Gottfried..............49
William................57
Kearney................59
Sun Tzu................61
Jerome.................62
William Griffin........65
Brian Kerecz...........65
Larry Cascade..........69
Jeffery D..............72
Morebull...............72
Rob C..................75

Sorry for the constant corrections. This brings the average to 61.57.
Near as I can tell June will be an easier month to predict because options expire before the BTB is announced.

The Future? Jeff

<<
LONDON (May 18) XINHUA - A team of British and Japanese scientists have announced a breakthrough in semiconductor memory technology, which they claimed will revolutionize the industry, Financial Times reported Tuesday.

The new chip was developed at a laboratory in Britain's Cambridge University which is funded by the Japanese electronics group Hitachi, the newspaper said.

Made up of a single, smaller transistor, the new memory chip stores more information, runs on smaller batteries and is believed to cost no more to produce than existing devices.

The advance makes possible the fabrication of a memory chip the size of a thumbnail capable of storing all the sounds and images of a full-length feature film, the researchers said.

The new chip is so powerful that it may replace present day storage devices such as computer hard disc drives and could be used in lighter, more powerful laptop computers.

Furthermore, it can retain its memory for up to 10 years when the power is switched off.

The new chip will be commercially available in 2005, according to Financial Times.

"I will be building option bridges into the future" Which option bridges look the most interesting to you? Would not some of the other companies in this group look more attractive as option plays? Does the shrink to smaller sizes benefit companies like NVLS and ETEC more than it does AMAT? I believe that all these companies will do well for the next few months, but which ones have the potential for immediate price appreciation?

Thanks, Jerome
