CREE - looks interesting...I agree with Wayne...should be able to get it closer to $10...latest release probably fueled the share price...should settle down. Looks like a great long term buy...

Pros:
- Recent insider purchases
- License agreement with Siemens
- Earnings growth relative to revenue growth looks great
- looks like a nice niche (is their technology protected/patented?)
- small/better transistors
- If they can pull off the Real color moving LED's they'll rock
- nice web page

Cons:
- Is this technology protected?
- "However, the Company is presently evaluating alternatives for financing the development of new applications of its technology, including its blue laser technology."
- " For the year, cash on hand has also increased by $2,911,000 as a result of stock option and warrant exercises."

"Cree Research is the world leader in the development and manufacture of silicon carbide (SiC), which is a base material used in the fabrication of the Company's blue light emitting diodes (LEDs), wafers and gemstone materials. The company was formed in 1987 by a group of researchers from North Carolina State University, who were pioneers in the development of single crystal silicon carbide"

Funny, CREE sounds alot like what Rhombic is trying to do with the Diamond doping...hope NUKE becomes as successful as CREE

All in all the technology looks cool...any clues on what the next earnings will look like? If they can keep those going the stock should do great...on my watch list...thanks
