Technology Stocks : Cymer (CYMI) -- Ignore unavailable to you. Want to Upgrade?

TechHunter, I own 5k shares. I would like you to ask WHY they do not think that buying stock at a 60% discount when NOTHING HAS CHANGED, is NOT a great idea. If they are so confident that nothing has changed, then buy some cheap stock and reduce the float even further. The announcement would probably gain us at least 2 points and would give the shorts and idea to get the hell out and lock in their profits. This stock is not Cisco, IBM or Intel. THere are not many of us out here that will just buy and hold. There is not enough history for most people. Therefore, it should be a prime responsibility to do other, more creative things to MAXIMIZE SHAREHOLDER VALUE. Please let them know that the people out here supporting THEIR stock deserve some attempt at help. Thanks, Steve

Good idea! I was wondering why CYMI could not announce each months shipments (at the end of each month) while still keeping the destinations of the lasers confidential? THAHKS DAVE

Tech: Good idea. I'ld vote for a stock buyback! In addition to a stock buyback you might ask if Akins could ask the big institutional sponsors in the stock to withdraw their shares availability to be lent out to the shorts. It could be an easy phone call or quick letter to the CIOs explaining the tremendous stock price appreciation benefits to be derived therefrom. Good Luck To Each And All Curly ~~~~~~~~^^ [6.6] ....> [_]
