Barron's Eric Savitz contends the time to nibble on downtrodden tech shares is now, provided you have a long-term outlook and can stomach potential gut-wrenching gyrations in the meantime.
* Oracle (ORCL) fell short last week, but will stay afloat because of its "huge base of recurring maintenance revenue... more overseas revenue than many other enterprise-software companies... it should benefit as IT departments move to reduce the number of vendors they do business with."
* Google (GOOG) has been bashed as consecutive monthly comScore data show shockingly weak paid clickthrough growth. Even so, conservative look-forward estimates of 2009 growth (25%) mean shares, at 25x 2009 earnings, trade for one-times its growth rate.
