I'm a sucker for wireless July 08, 2008
Wireless is Tech, but not the tech I really know, y'know? But I love the sector. It's sexy, volatile and on sale now. When clearwire dips to it's 52-week low around 10, I'm falling off the silicon bandwagon, and hopping on the spectrum one. With any luck the former will have crested and I'll have taken some profits I can use to catch the latter on its way up :-)

Waiting to take the LEAP July 08, 2008
I've had a trade trigger at 37 on Leap for months (specifically since March when I shoulda, but didn't buy the dip), waiting for it to get this cheap again, and last week it reminded me to take another look.

Anyway if it gets there, I'm taking the leap (sorry).

The best part is listening to all the hand-wringing about how hot their chips get, like that's a bug. Guess what? For their products, heat is a feature! High performance chips get hot, and Nvidia's are the top of the line. When laptop makers want to build in the latest......

Trina Solar on sale near its 52 week low July 01, 2008
I just love it when china runs a solar sale. Solarfun is the recent darling, along with the not-as-chinese-but-just-as-hot Canadian Solar, and both of those are incredibly cheap today too, apparently on some recent negative U.S. legislative news. But Trina and I go way back now, I am quite fond of her and she's due for some press :-)
Of course us naturally jumpy U.S. investors mostly assume that any time the U.S. government fails to pass (or in this case renew) legislation that's favorable to an......
