Hi Shane:That was an excellent article from IBD and fairly realistic.
The Asian Currency crisis is going to be the decisive factor in determining the trend of the Techs here. IMO the trend at best is sideways trending down thru Q1. My reasoning is as follows:
a:Japan is unable to break out of a recession as the Banks & Investors
have lost fortunes and are fearful.
bThe Asian Currency crisis is real and they are in belt tightening mode. Their survival depends on low imports & high exports. Because of this, competition will be severe and prices of our imports will decline. Companies having all their production in Asia and markets in Europe/USA will fair the best.

Since LSI has to contend with additional ramping up cost for their
new Oregon Fab, they will be under severe pressure for 1||2 Q's. A
prudent approach is defintely warranted.
