The Deen's List(TM) A service of Deen Capital Management, Inc. (www.deencapital.com) Vol.1 #73 Thursday December 4 2003 3:49pm ET Please read carefully our disclaimers at the end of this newsletter. Market stance: BULLISH (since Oct 3 2003) ******************************* Contents ******************************* Sold DIOD Sold SHRP *********************** Sold Diodes Inc. (DIOD) ************************ Net sell price in managed accounts(*).... $18.94 Date(s) bought........................... Nov 4 2003 Net buy price in managed accounts(*)..... $25.46 Holding period........................... 4.3 weeks Gain/loss in managed accounts............ +11.6% (after commissions) (*) The net buy (sell) price is the total net cost (proceeds) after commissions for all managed accounts divided by the total number of shares. There are signs of an incipient correction in semiconductor stocks, including a double-top pattern in the Semiconductor Holders' Trust (SMH). Also, this particular stock is today (Thu Dec 4) having a bearish intraday reversal. The stock was up sharply in the morning to a new multi-year high, only to give back that gain and then some this afternoon. A multi-year chart of this stock going back to mid-2000 reveals an all-time high in the low 20s at that time. Today we tested and retreated from that apparent resistance level. I still like this stock longer term, and I would certainly consider returning to it at a later date. Right now, however, a short-term correction may have just begun this afternoon, so I chose to lock in our profit. ******************* Sold Sharper Image Corp. (SHRP) ******************** Net sell price in managed accounts(*).... $29.28 Date(s) bought........................... Nov 25 2003 Net buy price in managed accounts(*)..... $30.83 Holding period........................... 1.3 weeks Gain/loss in managed accounts............ -5.0% (after commissions) (*) The net buy (sell) price is the total net cost (proceeds) after commissions for all managed accounts divided by the total number of shares. Like DIOD, this stock also had a bearish intraday reversal today (Thu Dec 4). It was up sharply in the morning, and down sharply in the afternoon at the time I sold. I also see a possible double-top pattern here, with today's intraday high of $32 matching the last all-time high of $31.98 set on Nov 12. *********************** Subscription Information *********************** Welcome to The Deen's List(TM), a new e-mail stock newsletter from Deen Capital Management, Inc.
