I clicked to see what stocks you were tracking and low
and behold, FBNA LIVES. Me grumpy!! You bet, and I owe it all to FBNA. When I 1st started on SI, I stumbled onto FBNA.
I tracked it considering to invest. Either you or one
of your cohorts set me straight. One of those embarrassing
moments on the board. Time flies when you're having fun.

Not yet but if the DOJ gets their way it could be. If they do, I imagine all the SEC software scanning the net for the phrase "the next Microsoft!!!!" will need maintenance.
So far your prediction is good. MSFT is down another 1 3/8 today. The other stocks I'm looking at are CSCO, SUNW, ORCL and TIBX (TIBCO Software) but the PE's are still a little rich. MSFT a has huge problems with DOJ and perception right now. The Antitrust thing is a huge overhang on the stock that will not go away for a long time but if I can get it cheap enough I will take the chance.
WBVN. Ouch! It's not a good time to own a stock whose's PE is N/A.
I probably didn't need to tell you that did I?
Regards

What are you doing here?
I knew I made mistake by not making this a moderated thread.
Just kidding. Happy birthday regards!
I hope you are old.

Can you make a case for LUcy at this price?
Yes, I can, but the answer depends upon your perspective. Are you a long term investor? A day trader? A swing trader? If you were to invest in LU, what are your goals for the investment? How much risk can you tolerate? How much pain before you cry "uncle"? <g>
Lucy has some upside, some potential downside and (likely) higher than normal risk for a large-cap gorilla. Let me know your goals, and I'll post the long and short (as I see it) on LU.

| To: Tom C who wrote (17) | 10/9/2000 9:13:09 PM | | From: Larry Brew | | | | Tom, As long as I'm here I'll post my 2 cents. Like you, I
believe we're in a much needed P/E correction phase. The
market took forward earnings to unrealistic extremes. A
couple weeks ago I was well positioned and sold into good
profits. Mostly natural gas and utilities. I look at my
portfolio today and ask myself: "how'd I get here?" I've
been jumping on high risk microcaps. Probably because I
made a killing on them in Jan and Feb this year.
As for good techs, I love LUcy. I'm not in yet waiting
for a better P/E, but it's one of my favorites. I bought
ATML for a second time today. It's been good to me even
though it too is overvalued. I trade it for now. For me
wireless is where it's at. I'm big in AWE but love QCOM
and NOK also. Oh yes, and I'm loaded up on FBNA! :-)
