1) Never say never. 2) I said some funds may be selling to adjust holdings -why the quotation marks around "funds never adjust their holdings before a split". Who do you think you are quoting? Read carefully before you start spouting negative hype as fact. JAZZ

Sure Sure, it is a well known fact that stocks nosedive before a split. Where did you get this new from? Stocks go up before a split. "Funds never adjust their holdings before a split". This is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard!! So why do you think that the stock has been weak? I keep seeing your posts that the stock is falling, that the bottom is falling out, that the end is coming... Do you have anything substantive to say about the company or an explanation? Did you read the earnings report? Conference call? If you think that something is fundamentally wrong with the company and that the selloff is more than VTSS going the way of all of the semi stocks lately, please post some SUBSTANTIVE info. It gets tiresome when antagonistic shorts come along and pollute a thread. I don't understand why civility and shorting a stock don't seem to go together. Jeff
