I need help - I want to create some technology exposure as I can see this being an area that is not subject (highly) to increasingly priced commodities, and would be an area the hedge funds move their money as they panic flee in a sector rotation.What I'm looking for is something not named Apple (AAPL), Research in Motion (RIMM) or Google (GOOG).... with the following featuresNot some tiny $500M market cap company that relies on 1 huge customer who in the blink of the eye can destroy the future with 1 decision to switch to a new vendor - I'd prefer something in the $1B to $30B sizeNot a "giant" like Hewlett Packard (HPQ)Not VMWare (VMW) - I know the story and know the risksNot Garmin (GRMN) - I know the story and know the risksNot Nokia (NOK) - I know the story and ...

In yesterday’s video I mentioned that we wanted to see a pullback to prior resistance near 124 and then to buy the stock once the buyers re-established short term control of the stock.

Many of my stocks have been steady and forming nice bottoms or bases (Omniture, Marchex) and some have just been going up at any sign of a broader market rally. Visa, Potash, RIMM, Apple and Nintendo have all weathered the pull backs exceptionally well and I am torn whether to hold on and ride out the bear or to sell and buy at lower levels. But then I have never been good ...

is the WALLSTRIP stock today.

Here’s my view of the stock.
