ml, if you are a bear, you may want to start being a little more cautious, consider the following thesis, with consumer confidence already hitting a 10 years low, how much lower can it go? The same with bookings in the semi equip, how much lower than $750 MM can it go (sure, why not $500 which was the low two cycles or so ago, but not too likely with a capacity base twice as large). I am not bullish here yet, since I don't have enough of a panic and "sell everything" type psychology, I am still waiting for Maria to announce that the only way to make money is going short.. but once this thing develops enough of an extreme, it could run up furiously...
