More than 90% say a Class Action Lawsuit against VSEA and Susan B. Felch of VSEA is going to happen, at least according to one public opinion poll. Demosthenes, my Greek friend, I am certainly looking forward to hearing your position on this important legal matter and its probable devastating effect on the stock price. As you know, my Athenian buddy, VSEA is long off its high of $69, where the CEO Richard 'Dick' Aurelio dumped a bundle of stock.

VSEA bloodbath continues! Below $45!!!!! No end in sight - VSEA attorneys say they are not ready for trial - legal bills grow and grow - no end in sight! How long before Susan B. Felch, the scary VSEA Director guilty of hiding a special videocamera that continuously recorded her fellow employees going the the bathroom resigns? Demosthenes, were you videotaped too?

VSEA bloodbath continues! Down 10% today! Demosthenes, my Thracian buddy, is it now time to dump this dog?

VSEA drops like a rock to $38.75 BUT the best buying opportunity may lie ahead as the SLAPP trial approaches and VSEA faces its third, count it, 3rd loss in its legal war with the stockholders of MoBeta, Inc.! Headed a lot lower in my opinion! What do you think about the VSEA Director Susan B. Felch and her lying to her mother, Demosthenes? Do you think she'll make as good a witness as I do, my Athenian buddy?

Holy cow! VSEA drops below $36.00! Is VSEA in the toilet as news about the SLAPP lawsuit spreads? VSEA - two court battles - two defeats!

Varian Semiconductor Equipment Associates (NASDAQ: VSEA $34.00) Strong Buy Sue Billat, Semiconductor Equipment/Foundries “We believe VSEA shares have pulled back, in large measure, due to the weakness in DRAM spot prices,” said Billat. “In an ongoing efforts to reduce costs and increase productivity, we believe DRAM manufacturers are accelerating their spending on capacity additions for next year. Given that many of Varian’s equipment have a six to nine month lead time, spot market prices have little bearing on near-term business outlook. Varian, which has historically had a high level of exposure to the DRAM industry, should benefit with the increased spending activity from the memory sector in the coming quarters, in our view. Moreover, the use of single wafer processing will, we believe, increase significantly with the transition to 0.13 micron technology node and the conversion to the larger 300 mm wafer size. As a leader in single wafer implanter tools, we believe Varian is well positioned to capitalize on the above trend. We reiterate our Strong Buy rating.” cnetinvestor.com
