DON'T BUY
Technology is the industry that is most sensitive to the closing off of corporate credit in the US. Most of the big-ticket items that go into technology or rooms ultimately drive this company in a communication, router, etc. sense. The problem is starting to unwind and this company will probably respond rapidly. Will be pretty difficult to make any money here right now.

COMMENT
Microsoft (MSFT-Q), Cisco (CSCO-Q) and Intel (INTC-Q) are probably going to weather the downturn relatively well. They are all effectively utilities and have significantly free cash flows with little or no debt.

BUY
Probably the best placed of the equipment suppliers in terms of the Internet global transformation. However, pricing power is a big negative in this industry.

DON'T BUY
Usually goes back to its previous highs anytime there is a business turnaround. Suffered because US business has been dwarfing what they have been doing internationally, even though 60% of revenues is outside of the US. Outlook is very strong because of their high definition products. Not a fan of tech stocks currently, as they don't usually pick up until August.

PARTIAL SELL
Lots of upside potential. Stock has been moving up in the general NASDAQ rally and could continue a little further. Excellent company and beautiful balance sheet. We are in a recession and it is deepening so he expects equipment sales to slow down. He would consider taking profits.

TOP PICK
Provides the infrastructure that powers the Internet. With concerns about inflation/high energy prices people will want to find the fastest way and least expensive to communicate and do business.

TOP PICK
The best of all the global networking companies. Made some very astute acquisitions when competition was in difficulty. Broad product range. You pay 16X earnings that he feels is growing at 25%. The kind of company you want to own when banks etc. start spending money on infrastructure.

TOP PICK
Trading at 15X earnings. A great company. In the networking sector, they have been the best. Still have very high gross margins. Broad product range where they can supply a lot of different clients. Took advantage of Nortel, Lucent and Alcatel distressed situations that they were actually able to grow their franchise. Over the next 3 to 5 years should grow at least 15%-20% if not more.
