Nevin, when I wrote that the SOX was down only some 2 point if finished down 8.44. My reasoning is based on the weakness of the leaders INTC, TXN, AMAT as well as MU, and the "need" to get into a very strong "oversold" in the segment in preparation for a good summer rally (VBG). I also was not seeing the tick getting very negative in face of weak prices, which to me meant that participants are not that bearish and a contrary opinion would be to be bearish.

Add to that the failure of major supports in AMAT, INTC and other leaders and you get a market which seems to be quite weak.

CYMI is shining in comparison, but I am afraid this will be only short term and it may drop with the rest of the group next week, thus my bail out this afternoon. I also bailed out of VECO, but did not get as good a price as I "think" (next week, I'll probably be sorry) I got on CYMI.

I am just stepping aside and going to see how far down this falling knife will go. There is a good probability we will go straight to test the low 240' (SOX) low of the year.

What will be the effect on Cymi of Intel's delay of Merced?

Positive or Negative?

Nevin, well my turnips were right again, we did close this Friday lower than the 19 plus or so of last week. By the way, I did get back in about $2 below, since I think that we may retest at least the high 19' and we might even have a chance of breaking through 20. CYMI action this week was pretty good considering INTC making a new low and many equip stock making new lows or deteriorating markedly.
