" Oct. 97 start of the sector-wide price decline. (If I remember correctly, the timing of the decline coincided with a massive closing of margin accounts by some of the brokers right before or coincident with their announcing sector-wide downgrades for semi-equips."

In Oct 97, the Asian debacle became clear and hit the US market in a huge way. UTEK was bid on anticipation of a new product cycle, so was not so clobbered by the prospect of Asian products selling in the US at vast discount.
