Amazon Stock Price Hurdles Key Resistance / Companies / Tech Stocks
By: Mike_Paulenoff
Yesterday we noted that Amazon (AMZN)'s failure to follow through to the downside multiple times in the session followed by a recovery rally effort intraday suggested it had ended its two-week correction. AMZN's thrust today has hurdled key resistance at 214.45-215.00, and has followed through to an intraday high so far at 217.82, which is very close to a full-fledged test of the all-time high at 218.36.

Facebook, Twitter, From Tech Bubble to Tech Bubble, Dust to Dust / Companies / Tech Stocks
By: Bill_Bonner
So far, this century has been a delight. From tech bubble to tech bubble in scarcely 10 years.
On our recent trip to China, all of a sudden we felt 10 years younger. For in the coffee bars of China’s futuristic cities were entrepreneurs, dreamers and lunatics who still thought it was 1999. A group of young techies filled us in: “We don’t worry about profitability. We can worry about that later. We want traffic. Because we know we can monetize the traffic on the stock market.” Here were people who still believed they could take eyeballs to the bank.

The Rise and Inglorious Fall of Myspace / Companies / Tech Stocks
By: Trader_Mark
The fall of MySpace over the past 3-4 years has been stunning in nature, probably only rivaled by that of Yahoo (YHOO) mid decade. Both were usurped by a competitor who has become a household name - in MySpace's case we are speaking of Facebook, while Yahoo was taken out by Google (GOOG). BusinessWeek's cover story details the rise and fall of MySpace who 4 years ago was the dominant social network.

Why Facebook Subscribers Should Get a Piece of the IPO the Action / Companies / Tech Stocks
By: Money_Morning
William Patalon III writes:
Mark Zuckerberg... you need to share the wealth from the Facebook IPO.
During a Wednesday morning appearance on the FoxBusiness "Varney & Co." program, Money Morning's Shah Gilani said the Facebook Inc. founder and CEO should reserve 20% of the potential $100 billion initial public offering (IPO) for some of the company's 600 million subscribers - since they're the folks who really made Zuckerberg the king of social networking (as well one of the youngest billionaires in history).

Investors Don't Get Fooled by Groupon IPO / Companies / Tech Stocks
By: Money_Morning
Kerri Shannon writes:
Groupon Inc. will try to get you to jump on its initial public offering (IPO) by touting its extreme growth and its profit potential - but don't believe it.
Even though Chicago-based Groupon, an e-commerce player that offers daily discounts to subscribers via e-mail, has exploded since it entered the online coupon world in 2008, that growth is threatened by the company's competition and mounting losses.

Cisco Stock Price Base Building / Companies / Tech Stocks
By: Mike_Paulenoff
Cisco (CSCO) is acting like it is building a base after a relentless corrective period. Let's notice that CSCO's early strength popped above its nearest-term resistance line and last week's rally peak at 16.51, on the way to this morning's recovery rally peak at 16.72.
Since then, however, CSCO has pulled back to 16.52 to retest the upside breakout level, which needs to contain the intraday weakness to preserve the bullish near-term pattern that has been carved out off of its May 25 low at 15.99.

How to Profit From the Fast Evolving Cyber War / Companies / Tech Stocks
By: Casey_Research
Chris Wood, Casey Extraordinary Technology writes: A new war is being waged – a war that is not fought with guns, missiles, or human soldiers, but with code in cyberspace, using computers and the Internet. It’s a war on all fronts – by governments against governments, governments against corporations, organized crime and insiders against both, and even individuals against other individuals (which is more often dubbed cybercrime, but that’s not a necessary distinction for our purposes).

David Zeiler writes:
From 1990 to 1999, Intel Corp. (Nasdaq: INTC) shares soared 10,000%, making the chipmaking half of the so-called "Wintel" duo a stock that almost every investor wanted to own.
And why not: Intel's processors served as the brains of 90% of the world's personal computers. And the PC market was booming.

Eye on Apple / Companies / Tech Stocks
By: Mike_Paulenoff
For you Apple (AAPL) devotees, and I consider myself among the faithful, my near-term work argues that the correction of the late-April upleg from 320.16 to 360.90 ended (finally) on Tuesday at 330.75.
Since that low, a new upleg has started that likely completed its initial upmove this morning at 342.40. If my work is accurate, then AAPL has entered a correction of the upmove from 330.75 to 342.40, and could press next into the 335-332.50 area in the hours ahead.

And yet there are still investors, analysts and businessmen who continue to doubt the company - choosing instead to believe that its meteoric rise is more flash than bang.

Is Apple Inc. (Nasdaq: AAPL) Undervalued? / Companies / Tech Stocks
By: Money_Morning
Jon D. Markman writes: Apple Inc. (Nasdaq: AAPL) last year passed Microsoft Corp. (Nasdaq: MSFT) to become the largest technology company by market capitalization. Overall, it's now second only to Exxon MobilCorp. (NYSE: XOM) in size.
But shockingly, even at $323 billion, Apple still looks cheap.

Bullish on Cisco / Companies / Tech Stocks
By: Mike_Paulenoff
Right now all of my work in Cisco (CSCO) argues very strongly that the April 19 low at 16.52 ended its bear market phase from its April 30 high at 27.74. If accurate, this means that the strength off of 16.52 either represents the start of a powerful counter-trend recovery rally (that projects to 18.20/50 next) or the start of a new bull phase that should propel CSCO well beyond 18.20/50.

Eye on Apple Stock Price Support / Companies / Tech Stocks
By: Mike_Paulenoff
We could make the case that today Apple (AAPL) broke down from a 4-month top formation when it sliced beneath 328.00-326.00 support (now resistance). As long as AAPL continues to consolidate below 326-328, the bears will remain in directional control.
