two gaps to lust for significant profits (upcoming)
minimal discussion here on fundamentals here

CNXT: Conexant in the wireless component niche
in midJuly shares gapped down from 50 to 40
news of increased R&D expenses and two acquisitions
officials warned of reduced Q4 earnings

share price descended to 30, touching 28, before rebounding
perhaps technically based, short covering, whatever
went up to 40, came back to 18day MovAvg at 37
current price in last couple days varied from 35 to 37
if and when the price pushes above 40, a windfall might occur

the gap it fell thru in July, it might rise thru in September
I see a possible rapid runup to low 50's from here at 37
could be a clean 35-40% shorterm profit NOW

INSP: Infospace in the wireless software niche
in midJuly share price gapped down from 48 to 37
news of acquisition of Go2Net and 25% dilution with new shares
but Go2Net will be accretive to earnings, with growth
they are even licensing SI software to other firms

share price continued down to 30, bottoming at 27
prices stabilized for almost a full month
once price rose above 30, it jumped up with buying strength
we didnt see any pullback until today, after hitting 41
the 50day MA is right around 39
the pullback today was from 41 to 37, closing at 39

we are at the doorstep of the gap NOW
the gap it fell thru in July, it might rise thru in September
I see a possible rapid runup to low 50's from here at 39
could be a clean 30-35% shorterm profit NOW

------
I wish I had followed my buddy in RhIsle who got INSP at 30
I did jump in for some CNXT today

each has low risk, large potential
caveat emptor, jackasses
