TI cautious but networking and wireless strong:

TI <TXN.N> "cautious" about near-term business

DALLAS, March 5 (Reuters) - Texas Instruments executives said Thursday they are "cautious" about near-term business because weak fourth quarter orders have pressured revenues and margins.

"Business in the near-term is mixed, certainly, because some of the markets are weaker," Chief Financial Officer Bill Aylesworth told Reuters.

"We have pointed out that the weak orders that we saw in the fourth quarter were going to put pressure on our revenues and margins in the near term and that is still our consistent view of the near term," he said.
Aylesworth said the market for dynamic random access memory (DRAM) chips remains volatile with prices still very low, but he expects TI's market in more specialized digital signal processors to roar ahead at above 30 percent in 1998.

He said the global semiconductor market should grow 10 percent this year to about $150 billion as it recovers slowly from a sharp fall in 1996. Last year's growth was four percent, and Aylesworth said TI sees the industry's growing at an average of 15-20 percent over the long-term.

He said the markets for wireless products, especially in digital celular phones, and networking are both strong.

E!

Thanks for the info. BTW that news was early in the morning, I guess maybe a delayed reaction by LSI.<g>

LSI seems to be responding like an old dog. Maybe it needs a little more than B12, probably something like a shot of Adrenaline might get this sleeper moving. Even the volume is depressing. Still seems like something is wrong with it...a little more than the Asian Flu.<g> Might sell at the end of day if it does not start doing something. There are still a lot of Kurlak followers that think he knows what he is talking about and probably expect the SOX down around 202.

I am not sure why I am wasting my time with this one except I believe it is undervalued. I just wish the institutions would feel the same way.:-)

I am doing good with MU and INTC today. Lot of volatility and movement.

Good Luck Trading
