These capital equip companies do alot of biz in Asia, so they're gettin' it.
Unfairly in my opinion.
They have all been beaten to a pulp already, yet they are coming in with good to great earnings.

TER is a good solid blue-chip type semi-equip. It will reward in the long haul. It's not a stock I trade. I've owned some for years now and added to it on weakness. I did lighten up to almost nothing when they all tanked a couple years ago, but bought back bigtime when it was in the teens.

UTEK is a future story. They have all kinds of cutting edge product in the pipe. It's a good solid company that reports in a conservative fashion.
They were not expected to have a good quarter. Mostly because of weakness in the disk makers. They make products that the head makers use.
I think it's cheap here.
Dig into UTEK. It has some real neat products and will be a major player in a year or so.
I feel as bullish about it as anything in my portfolio.

Forgot to mention that UTEK took a HUGE charge for R&D this quarter.

I did not mention UTEK, Scrapps. Leave me out of whatever it is! -GG-
