In the fourth paragraph, second line, "512 as a buy" should read "12 as a buy." The corrected text follows


ATLANTA, Feb. 15, 2001 (PRIMEZONE) -- The following is being issued by WinningInvestments.com: While many sectors in the economy expect to lag at least through the first two quarters of 2001, the chip equipment industry could be in line for a boost. In particular, KLA Tencor (Nasdaq:KLAC) is expected to be one of the leaders.

In early trading today, KLAC was up over 7% and broke though its 200-day moving average base.

The investment website sends out via e-mail its Newsletter, which contains news, commentary, education and covered call highlights, at the close of the market on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

WinningInvestments also selected KLAC as one of its potential covered call candidates for its "13/13" category, which contains stocks that have grown in sales and profits by an average of 13% in each of the last 10 years, and are predicted to grow by that same amount over the next 3-to-5 years.
