NSM has expanded its scope to include R & D in solar technology.  Recently the company developed new technology which will permit solar array to continue functioning even after individual cells in the array fail.  Technically, the stock has built and successfully tested support in the 20 - 21 area and is breaking out above that support on heavy volume.  Also, the semiconductor sector has become more bullish and NSM should be one of the primary beneficiaries of this improvment in the sector.  Next resistance should be in the 24 - 25 area.  Once past that I would expect a test of the 52-week ...

Merrill Turns Cautious On Chips, Foundries; Many Downgrades; Stocks Swoon
N/A

Bank of America/Merrill Lynch chip analyst Sumit Dhanda this morning turned cautious on semiconductor stocks, downgrading a slew of stocks; his colleague Daniel Heyler made a comparable on the foundries, lower ratings on a number of stocks.

    38%

    Intel Corp (INTC) raised the quarterly cash dividend by 12.5%, totaling 63 cents a share in 2010. The dividend yield comes to 3.1%.

    The company has been paying a cash dividend for the last 17 years and has raised the dividend 14 times since it started.

    Intel has over $8 billion of net cash on its balance sheet, or around $1.58 a share. The $1.25 billion payment to Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) will take another 23 cents a share off the cash balance.
