Curly,

It must be a bitch for the options specialist not to be able to manipulate CYMI back to 22.5 or 20....hehehe

IMO Next week CYMI will be 27 before earnings, and 30 after we beat the BS numbers. Lowering and beating the piss out of the number was a great move and I love the company for it.

Regards,

Rob

Curley,
You seem to be one of the most knowledgeable chartists on the thread.
What price do we need to settle above to confirm a breakout?
Thanks.
CFShrugd.

Some very intersting stuff.

As the rush into 64M chips is fueled by an anticipated recovery in
memory prices by summer, the makers are striving for the lead in the
initial race.

But it remains to be seen whether 64M DRAMs can save all or even
one when each maker is striving for the same brass ring.

NEC, which is planning by far the largest production increase, said
about 90% of its 64M products are high-speed chips that enjoy a
competitive edge and are thus unlikely to suffer price drops.

The high-speed DRAMs are designed for Intel Corp.'s latest line of
microprocessors, to be shipped starting this summer.

"Only NEC and Samsung Electronics Co. of South Korea are ready for
mass production," said an NEC vice president.

Samsung was the first to use DUV in production according Cymer's 3Q CC. In Q4, they added two NEC plants to the production list. It appears DUV is most definitely a prerequisite to 64Mb DRAM mass production. So as DRAM makers move 64Mb they will require DUV tools. The whole DRAM industry is moving to 64Mb, therefore...

Just affirming what we already knew,
