Peter, As you pointed out, all that spin-off/merger stuff mitigates the TA on CUBE a bit. I see plenty of early warning signs, but no confirmed sell signals, yet. If you want to trade CUBE using TA I think simple near term trend lines are probably your best bet. CUBE has some very clear ones: thru the lows on 10/18 & 1/7, lows on 1/7 & 1/12, lows on 1/12 & 1/19, and thru the highs on 9/29 & 12/28. I particularly like that last one 'cause it used to be resistance but CUBE gapped it and used it as support yesterday. There's a nice target line too, from the low on either 11/3 or 10/18 thru the high on 12/28. It'll be mighty tough for CUBE to get through that line. The right side of a cup doesn't have to be exactly at the all time high. CUBE doesn't even have to complete a cwh pattern. It's just something to be aware of since it is common. If you're not familiar with the cup with handle pattern check out this link: traders.com Now, compare that picture to CUBE's monthly chart: siliconinvestor.com As for today's action, CUBE put up a star today (almost a doji) which is a preliminary reversal sign, needs confirmation though. (CUBE also had a doji star last Tuesday and shot up nicely from there.) equis.com siliconinvestor.com That today's star was on high volume and the failure to make a new intraday high are also both warnings. The high volume with very little price movement (open to close) is a possible blow off top. Have I got you thoroughly confused now? All those are just warnings, not sell signals. Just be careful. FWIW...Alski

Pete, Hope you find this interesting: ____________ C-CUBE by CSFB (4Q99 Details) · C-Cube reported 4Q99 EPS results of $0.40 per share (beating consensus of$0.37) on revenues of $115.7 million - up 20.8% y/y and 14.2% q/q. Revenue wasdriven by growth at both the Divicom and the semiconductor segments. · Increased revenue and related higher gross margin, along with steady operating expenses enabled operating margin to expand 270 basis points to 20.1%, exceeding previous guidance for a slight improvement. · Divicom was up 27%, posting several key milestones including: the deployment by MediaOne of Divicom's open standard in Jacksonville, selection by Cablevision to provide for head-end equipment in the New York area, and a win for the first digital MMDS TV system in China. · Semi revenue increased by 40% in the quarter driven mainly by strength from DVD, set-top box, and CODEC products, plus a seasonal increase for VCD chips. The semi business also posted key design wins, including Cisco (for the DVxpert 5140 broadcast CODEC). · As advisors to C-Cube's sale of DiviCom to Harmonic and the spin-off of its semiconductor business, we are restricted on the stock.
