Linda:

Any idea about the significance of this (from the Street.com)?

A big trade in semiconductor concern VLSI (VLSI:Nasdaq) amounted to a strangle trade, a combination involving a put and call at different strikes with the same expiration date. A total of 6,000 June 17 1/2 puts traded at 5/8 ($62.50) per contract, and roughly the same in June 20 calls down 3/16 ($18.75) to 13 1/6. "The stock has been in play," said one floor broker.

"Some people still carry that opinion and are moving on it." Meanwhile, VLSI stock dipped down 1/8 to 19 1/8.
