Thanks for the tip on this one Monksdream!

I think this is an excellent pick.

Here is my market analysis for SPY

1. Current price is breaking above the previous long term high of 465.24

2. CMF indicator is just about totally green.

3. Long term moving averages are uptrending.

4. Both the PPO and/or MACD indicators crossed up above 0 signalling the next dog jeg jog of a bull flag pattern.

5. On balance volume and the accummulation/distribution lines are above their averages.

Great success long term success, thanks for pointing the stock chart out to everyone to have something secure to consider in these times where things seem up in the air.

They really aren't. It's all hard-coded in like this. Various factions like sales and marketing types in different contexts trying to create a sense of urgency for own purposes. Especially now with mainstream and social media with instant information connection and access. We hear the noise of people people garnering for attention and funds. A lot like visiting a stock market exchange pit but in a different way. We don't go there but it is forced upon us instead everywhere. Anyhow...

Everything I said for SPY also works for IMOS as shown but with a smaller audience.

$IMOS DD Notes ~ http://www.ddnotesmaker.com/IMOS

[noobie107]

$IMOS on my watch list for monday

[TheoThumbdown]

IMO, In my calculation, this stock's fair value is about $20 to $21 even with share structure simplification ongoing. Company's management favors Taiwanese investors and this has to be priced in until after all of this "simplification". May have further upside in years to come but this stock is controlled by traders and is dead right now due to unclear communication from the company.

[IIIverson]

IMOS charts are looking real nice. BOOOM BOOOOOM

http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=86583573

[Jetta09]

What's going on with this share price ? Any upcoming catalysts?

[madprophet]

From my understanding nobody is exactly sure why they sold more than they had to. I do hear that the most plausible reason was that they participated in the secondary offering, and ended up buying shares. That extra they sold allow them some wiggle room if they do in fact need to purchase some shares along the way.

Current value hasn't really changed. The company if you look at along the lines of its peers should be 25-30, we are just waiting for that valuation to come to fruition. From what I read, and from past trends..October we will see this moving up strong again...

[Jetta09]

I wonder why they did 170 million shares...i thought ballpark was about 130...value wise where do you believe this stands now

[madprophet]

Another step in full uplisting on Taiwan market.

ChipMOS slides on proposed pricing of Taiwanese subsidiary
ChipMOS shares (IMOS -4.2%) are sliding after the company announced it plans to sell 170M outstanding common shares of its majority-owned subsidiary, ChipMOS Taiwan, at a price of $0.67/share (NT$20).The sale would represent 20.2% of outstanding shares of the subsidiary and reduce ChipMOS's stake to 533.3M shares (63.3% of shares outstanding). The move is part of ChipMOS's plan to list the subsidiary on the Taiwan Stock Exchange, which requires ChipMOS to own no more than 70% of outstanding shares.The company expects the sale to close in mid-Oct.

A must read..

Here is a really good SA article...giving some timleine info, and a breakdown...

Info on the Baupost Group recent buying of both IMOS and its customer Micron....


Baupost initiated positions in two semiconductor related companies: it bought about 42 million shares of data storage device manufacturer Micron Technologies MU -4.52% and 2.8 million shares of semiconductor testing company ChipMOS Technologies IMOS -1.57% . Micron has more than doubled in price over the past year, and while it has been unprofitable on a trailing basis it did break into the black for the fiscal quarter which ended in May. Wall Street analysts predict that it will do well next year, and so the forward P/E is only 9, but that does seem a bit optimistic given recent results. ChipMOS's market cap is only about $500 million (though with plenty of dollar volume for most investors) which places its valuation at 12 times trailing earnings, though recent results have been flat at least on the top line. We would note that ChipMOS's beta is 2.7, demonstrating that its stock price tends to react strongly to changes in market conditions. Billionaires George Soros, Howard Marks, and Glenn Dubin are investors in Micron's convertible notes.

[madprophet]

25-30 is the actual place we should be trading at now..it is easily what the company is worth, but IMOS just doesn't get enough coverage...and when fully listed on the Taiwan exchange we will be...if we hit 25 before that happens, the targets go up from there...

next 4 months would be great, I did call 25-30 years end a few months back, but it all depends on where we are going through October...

[Jetta09]

I really appreciate your due diligence...Very thorough. I know Tim Arcuri at Cowen is VERY big on this stock. Consensus I am hearing is 25$ is where we should be trading next 4 months.

[madprophet]

Oh and 1 last thing...if the rumors pan out about Apple...then again all bets are off just the rumors could shoot us up past 20...

Apple (AAPL) is the subject of a lot of rumors. One rumor that has proved to be particularly persistent since Apple bought AuthenTec, a fingerprint sensor manufacturer, is that the next iPhone will read your fingerprints. Recent evidence seems to support this claim. As an independent company AuthenTec engaged the services of ChipMOS and Chipbond for gold bumping, testing, and assembly. Rumor has it that Chipbond will get the Apple sensor contract. I won't speculate on that, but will instead observe that with just two gold bumping providers and limited supply, I'm not sure it matters. ChipMOS foresees such tight supply in 12" gold bumping that they intend to increase capacity by 50% before the end of the year, from 16,000 wafers/month to 24,000 wafers/month. It's also notable that Apple suppliers Micron, Winbond, Macronix, and Renesas are all major ChipMOS customers.

[madprophet]

Not sure yet...I guess it all depends on where we go in the very near short term...like I said the earnings today was good..not great...if IMOS can get back above 18 by end of August to mid September my target will be higher...my sell target is the 25-30 range will be by end of year next year...end of this year...I guess it really depends on when we get back closer to 20...if we can hit closer to 20 by next earnings, we will blow past it by year's end and that 25 range is sooner rather than later...next quarter is notoriously a better cycle for IMOS we usually see a dip July, August..then we see the run up through October...and a dip again to level out through the new year..and March April we see a big spike again...

We saw the dip..it is going on right now...July is usually a bad month for IMOS pps, and it was, August improves a little but Sept-Oct is a great 2 months...I won't have a real end of year target till October....at that point it will give me a better idea of where we are going...all bets are off next year with them talking of full uplisting 2Q of 2014...

I am a huge fan of IMOS the last few years I have done some solid trading with it...it is my cash cow so to speak...steady solid returns...many good buying and selling ops..

What is your price target by year end ?

[madprophet]

Earnings call transcripts..

http://seekingalpha.com/article/1637702-chipmos-technologies-ceo-discusses-2q-2013-results-earnings-call-transcript?source=yahoo

[madprophet]

ChipMOS Technologies (IMOS +7.9%) is up after Seth Klarman's Baupost Group discloses it initiated a big position in the LCD chip testing/assembly firm during Q2.
The hedge fund held 2.8M shares as of June 30 (9.6% of shares outstanding).

[madprophet]

I don't really follow anybody...I do check in on the yahoo board, they have some great people on there who are VERY knowledgeable on IMOS...good info source..very active IMOS followers...about the only yahoo board worth a crap...lol

I would ask smart or dumb...what is your goal? If you are holding a and looking long term, there is no dumb position on IMOS under $20. Today the stock is rising again, up over $17 this morning. I have been buying in the $15's, knowing that $20 will be back again soon...I expect earnings to be not great, but good and we will be back heading towards that 20 resist point again...

I would say it is smart, I think we are moving up again...but you never really know with IMOS...it goes down at times for no apparent reason, it is way undervalued, and sooner or later ( I am thinking sooner) we will be at its real market value compared to its competition..all IMO

[Jetta09]

Do you think taking a position before earnings on the 15th is smart or dumb? I do not think the consensus on the Street is for their earnings to be very good. I also believe by years end $25. Do you follow Timothy Arcuri the analyst on this stock?

[madprophet]

Anything under 16 bucks is easy money..this is a roller coaster ride that is very cyclical. I have traded this up and down all the way from .83 up to 19 back down to 9 and back up again. Lots of buys and lots of sells...slowly adding to core position along the way...20 dollars right now is a BIG resist point...but IMOS is on track, they have been a real winner, a great story, and they top notch. Cleaned up share structure, taking all the right stpes, making all the right moves...


As far as buy -in? Again under 16 bucks is good, under 15 bucks is great. It will yo-yo many times so opportunity to trade this make some money while you add, add, add. My target by end of next year is 25-30 range. They are in the midst of doing everything they need to do to uplist on the main Taiwan exchange. Once that is all done..this will trade among its peers which are in that range.

You will get plenty of chances to get in..this is so far from a straight up and down stock...they are subject to demand for their services, which goes up and down throughout the year. we are about to be moving back up again. next earnings should be good...August and Sept earnings should rock...go look at the charts and you will see a nice pattern of up and downs based on time of year...and we about to be back in the upswing...

[dee$]

definitely liking the looks of this, just deciding on the right price to jump in at now...

[madprophet]

been watching, buying, and selling since IMOS was... .82...
made money many times over here...and we should continue climbing...truly remarkable story...

[madprophet]

18 and climbing. My target is 25-30 by years end. About time IMOS finally getting some coverage and respect. Great story, and it has even been uplisted in Taiwan yet. Good things still to come..good things..

[IIIverson]

III agree 110%. $IMOS we be over $20 in a month or so. Earnings May 16th. Beautiful chart pattern. Breakout confirmed. Up up and away.

[madprophet]

Damn almost a full dollar range today in trading...that is some volatile trading...not sure why more people aren't in this making cash...
IMOS is easy money, has been for 2 years now, buy...hold sell soon after for profits...wait for the drop..rinse and repeat...IMO

That might be changing, in that this may go up..up..and up...without a fall back down...again..maybe..but good things ahead!

[IIIverson]

VERY SOLID WEEK, $IMOS comfirmed breakout of the triangle. $IMOS should continue to rally for weeks and months to come. Great company, solid financials, sexy charts... BOOOOM BOOOOM!

http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=86583573

Clearly seen BREAKOUT of the triangle.

So it begins the march up to $30.00 it will take a year to get there..but it will...here is a seeking alpha article..trading begins today on Taiwan market, and things get moving early!
