For those of you who own this stock, you should note this: "Computer Associates declined to comment on its unusual market activity following a request from the New York Stock Exchange. The company's shares fell about 14% today, despite an analyst meeting in which executives painted a picture of strong revenue growth for the year but did not give specific comments about the current quarter." |

from the current Upside: "CA has never been an innovator, but it is always present with a very complete lineup of proven (if long-in-the-tooth) products. Its push into e-business is a good sign that the market is maturing -- but also that CA will begin making life much tougher for some of the incumbents. Expect a move for either Sybase, Informix or both this year. That would apply some real pressure to Oracle." |

On the plus side, they have been very aggressively buying back shares, a sign that the company's management believes the stock is a bargain. |

Mayor of Investorville Administrator |
Computer Associates supplies an extensive array of systems management, information management, and business management software products for use on a variety of hardware platforms. Because of its independence from hardware manufacturers, the Company has been able to offer products for use on most of the existing major operating systems. The Company's products operate on over 40 different desktop, midrange and mainframe operating systems and platforms.
