Andy,

I still feel that Jock's getting out of LSI (at 72 or so) was a great call. I only wish our good friend Addi had followed Jock's call and acted on it. I do remember that Jock had put out a detailed analysis long before that as to why LSI would hit 160 (adjusted for splits, it would be 80) within a certain time-frame. And it turned out to be true.

Even if I attribute that fact not so much to the accuracy of Jock's analysis as to the extent of the mania at that time (one could have forecast any stock to rise 300%, 400% in 1999-2000 and have a pretty good chance of being right), I still have to give credit to Jock that he got out near the top. The fact that it went another 25% in just two days does not say how wrong Jock was; it says how manic the market was.

Andy: Don't we all long for the days when one could miss a stocks peak by 20% by trading it during the wrong hour. Guru I am not. Paranoid yes.

Andy: In a couple of months when I have the time, will give my scenario for LSI, but in many ways it will mimic what has long been said on this thread. I am particularly interested in how FPGA functionality will play out vis a via the ALTRs of the world.

And a primary reason LSI is valued much lower than NSM is that LSI lost John Daane, who was the clear heir apparent to Wilf. With Hala running NSM, Wilf is becoming the Miami of Ohio of the semi industry.

We see if a credible heir apparent arises.
