Speaking of chips, circuit maker National Semiconductor (NSM) reported first-quarter earnings of 74 cents a share, including one-time charges, beating the Street's call for a gain of 65 cents a share. National Semi said its strong quarter was the result of improvements in operating efficiency at its manufacturing plants and greater concentration on supplying growth areas like wireless technology providers and Internet network equipment makers.
