Good luck, Paul. Yes, they have plenty of cash and I'll give them credit for keeping inventory levels relatively low. However, they had almost $70MM in sales 2 quarters ago, down to $51MM last Q and forecasting $35MM on the low end for next quarter. Not looking good, imo.

Hi Paul, I'm still in limbo with GNSS. The last time I bought more shares was with the price not too far from here. So, I don't have the desire to add to the position unless deeper discounts are available.

Still, I'm keeping a GTC order in place to sell off about 5% or 10% of my holding should the price recover back to the mid-teens. I remember when I first bought into GNSS. I'd been to a trade show in Feb. of 2000 and maybe 1/3 of the booths had the new "flat screen" monitors that were just showing up then. A year later at a similar trade show, even though flat screen monitors were still extremely expensive, the ratio was up to about 2/3 flat screens.

I bought a 32" flat screen LCD "HD-TV" monitor for around $800 a couple of months ago. My how things have changed. So, there's some validity to the other comments here about monitors becoming a "commodity" and therefore having somewhat limited potential profits for the component suppliers.

I'm hoping for one more sine wave!

Best regards, Tom

Hi Paul, I just took a belated look at GNSS's price/share. It's now under $8/share. I'll have to check the tea leaves and see what that does to generate an additional buy order.

Best regards, Tom
