We need to change directions here. I have lost a lot of money in this stock and the trend continues to head south. The company said last quarter that the sales would be flat moving forward for the next few quarters. Are we going to have to wait until mid 99 to see some earnings beating the street numbers. At that time the stock might only be worth a $1. I would like to hear some more news about how this company is really doing. Any thoughts out there. |

Its truly unfortunate, but the nature of the market. You may have read this before, but I recall an analyst Rhonda Wylse in San Diego, who at this time is continually harrassed, broadcasting that this stock would be in the high 50s by the end of the year. She said this when it was around $30 in April. Needless to say, a disaster occurred and without a lot of good reason. And you are right about this possibly falling to $1...thats the scary part. I don't think TSR is history, but its going to take until 2000 to get your $ back I would assume. If you have lost a lot, its probably worth just forgetting about it and waiting it out. I got blasted in a similar fashion with CYMER. Love that goddamn company, but lost way more money than I can afford. But, its just money... |

So, what's happening with this stock. I just heard about it today, and checked out the 10k and 10qs.
My suspicion is that the stock price ran up based on enthusiasm of the Y2K potential. Now that the company has said that Y2k is slow in coming and will probably decline, has the market overreacted to the downside now?
The company is selling at a 10 PE, and I imagine the best way to describe them is a longer term programmer temp agency. I can see where that's not sexy, but lots of companies are outsourcing this otherwise high overhead activity. Sure, a major customer or two may reduce billable hours, and they'll probably have to pay more for programmers than they can increase billings, but this might already be reflected in the price.
I figure I'll hang on the sidelines until the next quarter's results, but I'm seeking your inputs on this stock in the meantime.
Thanks,
Carl |

Look at the long term chart on this one it usually starts to move during this time of year. I would not trade this one because it is quite illiquid, however a short to midterm hold 4 - 8 months may prove fruitful at these levels. Best regards Richard. |
