Alski, For DD play, I would throw in MXTR and RDRT for maximum percentage move from here if the entire group rebounds. While QNTM is doing the right thing, MXTR has the best process engineering though. My brother-in-law works there <GG>. The stock took a steep dive last Friday on news it was buying space in Singapore to open up another production facility. Ya, said the investors, just another never-learned management move to expand when the business is good. It's a cyclical business, stupid! If one reads the fine print, I would think not. The management was not expanding production facilities right now. The management is buying property on the "cheap" now in Singapore (which is never very cheap anyway) for future expansion cushion. Therefore, I think MXTR can rebound when the current ill wind blows over and buyout rumors resurface. PMRY - disappointing day today as no volume emerge to take it over the $23 hump. If it doesn't happen tomorrow, the prospect of another dip and then a restage is pretty much set. It just can't get respect. Mike, about Valence Technology (forgot the symbol) - I did a patent search today and I was thrown back into my chair when the search returned 25 US patents issued in 1998 alone! I don't know much about the battery technology area but for a company of Valence's size 25 US patents granted in 1998 seems a remarkable number to me. I will do a search going further back before 1998. Know any of their competitors?
