Hi Praxis,

>>Incidentally, MSD is the undisputed leader in memory testing devices and therefore could also be an attractive takeover target, especially now considering the weakness in the C$.

Not likely. The Board of Directors approved a "poison pill" defense in the past few months. It should have been a signal as to how things were going. 20-20 hindsight. <ggg>

I think the current price under $5.00 looks attractive, but it might take a few years to get the good return. Mosaid's market was about 75% Asia. Japan may not turn for quite a few years. Seems to me if Mosaid survives the cycle, they will again at least double, which makes the gamble worth taking. But you have to be VERY patient.
