TG, Shareholder Rights programs typically get instituted when the stock price has been weak and there is concern that someone will try to buy it on the cheap. I think that may be a reasonable concern for CYMI now given the combination of its big price drop and strong potential going forward. Since semi and semi equip stocks trade with wide swings between the gloomy going-to-hell and glowing going-to-the moon expectations, long term investors are likely to do best by picking companies with strong long-term prospects when the near to intermediate future looks cloudy or negative. The ability to look beyond that is what allows you to pull the trigger, buy it relatively low and sleep well. Whether CYMI will trade lower in the short term is hard to predict. That CYMI will trade much higher in the long term, IMHO, is much easier. good luck, Baird
