China, Yahoo> Trip from China and got excited by: globalhomeless 33387 of 33387 Was in China for a little vacation and found some new aggressive advertising from Hyundai, Samsung, and Motorola China for GSM/CDMA systems that will be introduced over the next few months. Also visited the Qingdao Technology Park. Lucent Technologies has a nice facility building wireless systems for Asia. Finally, would be interested in Neo's position on IDTC. I know this is a QCOM board, but his comments and insights have some good value. (Also, he does not post there.) Thanks, GH PS. Hold on to your technology focus....China is making some aggressive moves into the field. They just adjusted a law that will allow for internet access and commerce to develop nationally, mostly via wireless methods.

Re: Stop loss <<<They'll take your stock on an intraday low and sell it to someone else at a higher price at day end.>> Yes. Happened to me on 200 shs Dell back in '96, went down 7 and up 7 in the same day. Never used SL again on Dell. If fact they sold it at less than the daily low reported for the stock. I did use some SL's on Aol and Yhoo back in the spring, but only because I was using high margin and could not afford to have things decay further. Will forget about using SL on Qcom, unless it started strong downtrend( not too likely). Sig
