Curly, I am not sure if it will happen in 90 days or so, but before the end of the year, I would say there is some likelihood, but far from certainty. The signal will be a change in trend which for me means a penetration of the $41 to $43 range.

Curlton, Zeev suggests waiting for a stock penetration of 41 before going long. I suggest waiting for certain key signs that typically signal a bottom. The best sign will be someone closing a fab, or getting out of the DRAM business. Another sign could be someone postponing or canceling spending plans. If AMAT spikes back up to 70, this is not a good sign for MU.

Both Zeev's sign and mine will probably happen together, by the way. The reason I'm not using an absolute stock price target like Zeev is that a move to the 20's is not out of the question in which case a new target will be needed. My original target for this down move was the low 40s, I belive, and then later I changed it to the 30's. Larry posted my modified forecast to the Micron Clubhouse:
techstocks.com

At this point we could be at the bottom, or it could go quite a bit lower. Since I have no notion of which way the stock will go from here, I haven't taken any position since closing my short at 39 and change.

I would add though that if you rely on the stock action to tell you that MU is really changing direction you need some volume. Another weak move to 41-42 on low volume is probably a shorting opportunity, but if the move is on good volume it is more likely to continue.
