Reason for the 4 point rise. Traders are accumulating TXN on belief that TXN may sell DRAM business any time; they want to be in the stock before the sale. Sale would remove a -$.20 per quarter drag on the bottom line; that is, profit would immediately increase by 80 cents annualized and free the company of the DRAM headache so it can concentrate on DSP business that grows at 30% annually. At least one brokerage house called its customers and recommended buying, especially for long-term accounts, so they would be there before the sale, even if they got there a bit early.
