SOX came close to breaking Oct low of 418.77, but held given major indices - NDX especially did not collapse gives a good indication of a bottom. Move in MSFT shows PC sales expected to be very good - China. Best stock IMHO is BRCM down 10 points based on CNXT news - has nothing to do with BRCM itself!!!!! I have loaded up on the following calls for Aug BRCM 40 1.50 KLAC 40 1.50 MXIM 50 1.10 Also hold other issues and other strikes - but these are primary positions.
