Another question is why CUBE is featured so prominently at the R-S Semi conference. This is a semiconductor conference, is it not? Perhaps CUBE should be spending more time at conferences reflecting where it is earning a majority of its revenue, i.e. digital video networking.

As a semi company, particularly now, CUBE is being punished. Punished for DVD slow rollout. Punished for DIVX. Punished for LSI getting one of the design wins with Sony. Punished for new China VCD standard. At the same time, everyone knows that digital video is here and will grow magnificently over the next decade.

I'm conflicted. On one hand, I think it's great CUBE is low in price so I can accumulate as much as I want. On the other hand, they should simply split the company again to have it reflect the true value. After all, the street can only punish the semi side so much by giving it ridiculus price to book value ratios. But at these prices we are also punishing divi side of business.

They can accomplish the same thing, though, by starting to play it smart with IR. Repeat after me "Fabless semi maker is BAD association, Digital video networking is GOOD association.

Hold on cowboy....

Alex has met with people who put positive spins on his stock. You've even posted some of those articles.

Alex finally gives Rocker a one on one and Rocker changes his mind?
You don't call that good?
As I see it one of two things happened over that lunch.
Either Alex was on his knees under the table,
or he showed Rocker that his is bigger.
Either way the long time short has been converted.

In addition, Rocker stated his change in position in public.
This is a clear signal to the other shorts that the problem plaguing the company has abated.

Now I showed you that Rocker held 400k shrs long at the end of June.
Some say that this is a hedge against his short. Well if that is true, does this mean he since he's covered his short, he's sold his long position? Could he have run the stock up while he covered his short, then drove it down as he sold off his longs. Can it work that way? Does the chart show evidence of this?

BTW Speedy, the Rocker dude has 11mm in SPEEDWAY MOTORSPORTS INC, so he can't be all that bad. <Grin>
