There's a long way to go between now and the 1st November results. I just can't see what can prevent the share price to continue dropping till then. A huge head and shoulder formation transpiring.

I am waiting to see where the resistence comes in

Re todays RNS, looks like somebody thinks the share price is very good value, quite a significant increase

From Telegraph online site:

11am: Analysts consider what Amazon's Kindle Fire means for tech stocks

City analysts were this morning considering what Amazon's launch of its Kindle Fire - a rival to Apple's iPad - means for technology companies.

The $199 tablet computer will let users download books, magazines, videos and music and will be available in the US from November 15.

Assessing the impact on UK technology hardware stocks, Ian Robertson, a Seymour Pierce analyst, thought the key winners could be Wolfson Microelectronics and Imagination Technologies. He said:

Although the chip suppliers have not been disclosed, the fact that it has been produced by the same firm that supplied the RIM Playbook, and it has a similar look to that product, suggests that the key UK tech hardware winners are Wolfson (HOLD) and Imagination Technologies (SELL) (via the TI OMAP applications processor) and, of course, ARM (no recommendation).

There is no BlueTooth or GPS in the device. The price point is sufficiently low for this product, $50-$100 below rival 7" products, to actually increase the market size. Set against the general consumer weakness however, we see no justification to adjust our forecasts upwards at this point.

Will be interesting to see how Amazon's tablet launch is received - both in terms of seeing in due course whether WLF secured the slot and whether of course the thing will be expected to sell in any great numbers.

I think you may well get the opportunity

[sat69] 27/9/2011 13:40

I'll have a nibble at 125p.

[keybored] 27/9/2011 13:39

Return to profit is whats needed to kick start imo

[pjw956] 26/9/2011 21:03

downgrade to 135

others are a little more optimistic....

who knows best ?

[glyn10] 23/9/2011 14:56

I see it as a positive move but, what do I know

[sat69] 22/9/2011 16:36

Looks like a good bolt on seeing as they were already in partnership together.

[keybored] 22/9/2011 12:27

Any views on he aquisition ?

[sat69] 21/9/2011 13:01

Fab - err no! I believe their next results will be at the end of October, and as the CEO painted a hazy picture in the last set, there still could be more downside to come. If that happens, the end of Oct would be a good time to buy.

[fabzzz] 21/9/2011 11:17

probably not quite the announcement you were expecting...

[sat69] 21/9/2011 10:34

Now 150p, but I'm still not buying as I can see another downleg. Wait for the next announcement.

[keybored] 24/8/2011 12:53

[pjw956] 12/8/2011 20:00

[glyn10] 11/8/2011 10:02

any idea what the company is called?

[acgent] 11/8/2011 09:43

In an effort to cheer everyone up I saw this morning that HTC is buying a large portion of the company that makes "Beats by Dr Dre audio" products. This could be excellent news for Wolfson.

In their results in mentioned that they had won a new tier one platform. If this is HTC then happier days may well lay ahead in spite of the world coming to end.
