I posted the following on the atml thread, just substitute 'atml' with 'lsi' and it will be what my thought is about lsi :

Peter, I agree with you that this is the type of stock at a level that you can hold for the longer term. Option expiry is causing the stock to drop.
Also all semis are showing sign of weakness due to the Indonesian problems and the NSM's warning. LSI, VLSI, NSM, MU, SVGI, Lattice, Lam .... are all showing sign of weaknesses. Interestingly major semi equipment makers are not showing any sign of weakness - AMAT, NVLS, TER, KLAC (except Klic) ...
When semis turn around, ATML shall lead the charge again. Technically atml looks ok to me - it's still on a breakout mode - only taking a short rest. Vol is relatively low on this pull-back.
