H.,

Outstanding find.

I don't think Merrill Lynch is in the habit of touting stocks that they have no interest in.

Perhaps some coverage to be initiated soon???

Ian.

Henrik,
FitzGerald's opinion of MTSN hardly seems like good news.

fnews.yahoo.com
"But the companies FitzGerald pegged as also-rans -- Lam Research (Nasdaq:LRCX - news) , Mattson Technology (Nasdaq:MTSN - news) and FSI International (Nasdaq:FSII - news) -- are up off their lows in similar fashion. Because each faces tough competitive issues, FitzGerald said he doesn't see the latter group as keepers, especially because cost-conscious Intel (Nasdaq:INTC - news) won't carry into the next decade the purchasing power it had in the 1990s."

I used to be a broker for Merrill Lynch and I am surprised that they even know that Mattson exists, much less worthy of any sort of mention. They usually follow only the big name tech stocks and I must say from personal experience that their tech stock research is really weak. In fact it's downright suckie. If they ever recommended MTSN, I would probably bail out. That's how bad they are. Phil
