		<description><![CDATA[The Semiconductor Industry serves as a driver, enabler and indicator of technological progress. Developments in the industry determine the way we work, transport ourselves, communicate, entertain ourselves and respond to our environment. The PCs we work on, the cars we drive, the phones we communicate with, the electronic gadgets on which we watch movies, listen to music and play games on, and the planes and weapons used to transport or protect us use semiconductor devices. As environmental issues have become more of a concern today, semiconductor devices are being made to reduce power consumption, reduce heat dissipation, capture solar energy, create more efficient lighting solutions and so forth. The industry has come a long way since the last downturn, when most of the players streamlined operations and transferred more routine ]]></description>

U.S. video game sales were up 36% sequentially in the month of December, as new versions of some famous franchises and positive consumer spending joined hands to drive the sales higher. However, the yearly comparison was not so upbeat, hinting at the lingering macro-economic factors. According to the NPD Group, the video games industry logged revenues of $3.99 billion in December, significantly higher than the $2.93 billion in November 2011. However, sales plummeted 21% on a year-over-year basis. Software sales in December were $2.04 billion, up 22.2% from November, but down from $2.37 billion in the comparable prior-year period. For the second month in a row, Activision Blizzard ]]></description>

Shares plunged 11.53% regardless, as earnings were significantly lower than both the previous and year-ago quarters. OmniVision’s results were impacted by a major cutback in orders from some important customers in the consumer segment. Moreover, guidance was significantly below expectations. Total Revenue OmniVision’s reported revenue of $217.9 million was down 21.1% sequentially, down 9.0% over the prior year and just over management’s revised guidance range of $212-217 million (previous guidance was for revenue of $255-275 million).

		<description><![CDATA[Netflix Inc.’s (NFLX) shares plummeted almost 19% in yesterday’s trade after the company cut down on the projected subscriber base for its third quarter of fiscal 2011. Estimates for the total subscriber base declined by a million. The new estimate pins the company’s DVD-only subscriber count at 2.2 million, down from the previously projected estimate of 3 million. Netflix also lowered its estimates for its streaming subscriber base to 9.8 million, down from the previously-guided estimate of 10 million. However, the company retained its projection of 12 million customers in the third quarter using both services. Netflix also has not changed its financial forecast for the third quarter despite the projected loss of its subscriber base. Netflix’s subscriber loss is likely on account of its new subscriber plan that was ]]></description>

Qwikster will be headed by Mr. Andy Rendich, who has been leading the DVD service for the last four years. Qwikster will have separate user accounts, movie ratings and billing. Qwikster will also be renting video game DVDs for Nintendo Co.’s Wii, Sony Corp.’s (SNE) PlayStation 3 and Microsoft Corp.’s (MSFT) Xbox 360 consoles.

		<description><![CDATA[The video game industry continued its dismal sales performance, reporting disappointing numbers in the month of August. According to market research firm, The NPD Group, U.S. video game retail sales declined for the fourth consecutive month to $669.9 billion in August 2011, down 23.0% year over year. Although NPD’s data does not include sales from Xbox Live, PlayStation Network, Steam or other online channels, revenue from online social games, mobile games and subscription services such as World of Warcraft, used games and rentals, its relevance lies in the fact that retail sales continue to represent 75.0% of the total video game industry. Year-to-date, video game sales slipped 5.0% year over year, and have fallen to their lowest level in the last five years. Earlier, sales in May, June and July ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Eastman Kodak Co. (EK) has put a portfolio of its patents on digital imaging, up for sale. The move entails attracting potential buyers and converting the company’s intellectual property into cash. Kodak’s digital-imaging patents are estimated to worth $3 billion, of late. In July, Kodak announced selling 1,100 patents on digital imaging equivalent to about 10% of its portfolio. The patents may include one that protects image-preview technology used in cameras. The company hired Investment bank, Lazard Ltd, to search for &#8220;strategic alternatives&#8221; for the patents. Lazard thus began marketing Kodak’s patents portfolio, targeting a large, strategic buyer in the wireless industry. The name of the potential buyer has not been disclosed yet.

It was the sharpest fall since October 2006. July’s decline was the industry’s third-straight month when U.S. sales of video games’ hardware, software and accessories contracted in double digits. Earlier, sales during May and July declined 14% and 10%, respectively. The major factors that resulted in the decline were weak schedule of new title releases and seasonally lower sales. Adding to the woes was the uncertainty about the economy and the disappointing growth in the jobs market that ultimately affected the ]]></description>

Activision earned 9 cents per share (including stock based compensation but excluding one time items), well ahead of the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 4 cents and management’s guidance of 4 cents. Reported earnings jumped 125.0% from the year-ago quarter. The quarterly results were driven by the online integration of its products and digital revenue streams, including Blizzard&#8217;s World of Warcraft and Activision&#8217;s Call of Duty, which also continued to push the retail revenue stream.

But not for long. What Amazon has planned could challenge both tech giants in one fell swoop. The Wall Street Journal reported earlier this month that Amazon will release a tablet PC by October. As more details emerge, we get a clearer picture of what Amazon will offer. Some of the biggest developments are the new additions to Amazon’s video streaming service. It was reported Thursday that Amazon closed a deal with NBCUniversal for streaming video rights, after reaching a similar deal with CBS (NYSE: CBS) last week.

		<description><![CDATA[German authorities have identified potential security flaws in Apple Inc.’s (AAPL) devices such as iPhone, iPad and iPod that are feared to be vulnerable to cyber attacks. According to reports from the Associated Press, German security agencies cautioned that the security hole may be exploited by hackers to steal confidential data from the devices. Germany&#8217;s Federal Office for Information Security is of the opinion that hackers can infect Apple devices by sending malicious emails in the form of Portable Document Formats (PDF). Thereafter, once the unaware users are deceived to open the PDFs, the hackers will get accessibility to the administrative rights of the devices. In such a case, hackers have the access to steal or use confidential information such as passwords, online-banking data, calendars, e-mails and intercept telephone conversations ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Cyber security has emerged as the most discussed topic in the technology market over the last few months. As corporations, government agencies, banks and video game companies have been plagued by cyber attacks, online security has become a major concern for all. However, the last few months have been particularly embarrassing for cyber security providers such as EMC Corp. (EMC), after some high-profile hacking was reported at Sony Corp. (SNE), EMC’s own RSA division, defense contractor Lockheed Martin Corp. (LMT), banker Citigroup Inc. (C), search company Google Inc. (GOOG), video game companies Electronic Arts (ERTS) and Sega Sammy Holdings Inc. Moreover, government agencies like the IMF and CIA were also targeted. The Oak Ridge National Laboratory, which works closely with the U.S. Energy Department, also fell prey to cyber attack. ]]></description>

(ERTS) this time, as the company’s website reported that hackers have stolen user information. The video game maker reported the breach in its BioWare division as “highly sophisticated and unlawful.” Hackers breached the servers related to “Neverwinter Nights,” produced by BioWare Edmonton, and supposedly stole user names, encrypted passwords, email addresses, mailing addresses, names, phone numbers and birth dates. However, the company confirmed that no credit card data or Social Security numbers were compromised. Meanwhile, Electronic Arts is said to have identified and secured the hacked server and started an internal investigation relating to the breach.

Earlier Citi had revealed the extent of the recent security breach it faced after hackers got access to hundreds of thousands of its credit card customers’ information in North America. Management affirmed that around 360,083 North America Citi-branded credit cards were hacked and only accounts issued in the U.S. were impacted. Citi came to know about this unauthorized access during a routine check up.

		<description><![CDATA[by Tony D’Altorio, Investment U Research Tuesday, June 28, 2011 In recent years, the bright lights of Hollywood dimmed as its revenue declined, thanks in large part to the advent of new technologies. Income streams from sales of CDs and DVDs slowed to a trickle thanks to the streaming of media via the internet and companies like Netflix (Nasdaq: NFLX). Netflix is now the largest subscription entertainment company in the United States. It has over 23.6 million subscribers and accounts for 30 percent of all internet downloads in the United States during peak hours. The technology Hollywood believed could help them – 3-D films – is a flop: Audiences are put off by the high ticket prices. But now, as if from a Hollywood movie, another technology has appears on ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[by Justin Dove, Investment U Research Wednesday, June 22, 2011 The Great East Japan Earthquake shook up Japanese electronics manufacturers like Sony (NYSE: SNE), Hitachi (NYSE: HIT) and Panasonic (NYSE: PC) in March. And things haven’t turned around yet. Sony’s stock is still reeling as it hit a 52-week low last week – a drop of more than 25 percent from its pre-quake price. Panasonic is down more than 10 percent and Hitachi is down approximately eight percent from their respective prices on March 10, 2011 – the day before the disaster. Days after the first quake, we suggested that investing in Japan could be a good bet for the long term. What we didn’t know at the time was how long it would take to see signs of recovery. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Citigroup Inc. (C) has revealed the extent of the recent security breach it faced after hackers got access to hundreds of thousands of its credit card customers’ information in North America. Management affirmed that around 360,083 North America Citi-branded credit cards were hacked and only accounts issued in the U.S. were impacted. Citi came to know about this unauthorized access during a routine check up. Customers&#8217; account information such as name, account number and contact information, including email addresses were leaked. However, chances of fraud are perhaps less as more critical data remained unscathed. Such data include customers&#8217; social security number, date of birth, card expiration date and card security code (CVV). Yet, customers remain susceptible to other problems. The extent of client information that has been hacked could be ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The International Monetary Fund (IMF) is the latest victim of cyber crime, as reported by Bloomberg. The report highlighted a series of attacks on companies such as EMC Corp. (EMC), Lockheed Martin Corp. (LMT), Google Inc. (GOOG), Sony Corp. (SNE) and Citigroup Inc. (C). Bloomberg reported that the data theft at IMF has been linked to a foreign government. Although IMF did not quantify the amount and significance of data stolen, security analysts believe that the attackers had broad access to IMF systems, thereby providing them visibility into IMF plans. The attack on the IMF led the World Bank to sever its network link with its sister organization, even though it was not used for confidential financial information or other sensitive data. The alleged state-based intrusion is particularly alarming, as ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Just a month after posting robust sales in April 2011, the video games industry fell off the cliff to a new low since October 2006, in May. According to market research company, The NPD Group, US retail sales of the video game industry shrank 14% in May 2011 from the comparable previous year to $743.1 million. A lower number of new game releases coupled with weaker sales of portable games dragged the overall performance of the industry lower.  According to NPD, only 42 new stock keeping units (SKU) or new games were introduced in May as compared to 58 in May 2010 and 72 in May 2009. Software sales were down 19% year on year to $375.8 million against analysts’ expectations of a flattish performance. Amid this dismal picture, some ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[by Tony D’Altorio, Investment U Research Thursday, May 26, 2011 Most investors think Apple (Nasdaq: AAPL) deserves its monster stock valuation. After all, it did vanquish all of its foes on the technology battlefield. Take its breakout products: the iPhone, iPad and MacBook Air. All three have competitors gasping for air as they try to catch up. All the same, those successes have contributed to cloud computing, which is surprisingly aiding the industry laggards. Traditional tech companies like Dell (Nasdaq: DELL), Hewlett-Packard (NYSE: HPQ) and Intel (Nasdaq: INTC) stand to benefit greatly from the new trend. These companies’ recent numbers prove this latest technology wave has merit. Tech analyst Rob Enderle says they “reflect a massive push to the cloud.” Cloud Computing Market He’s right, too.

(NFLX) may pay $200 million to $300.0 million a year to renew a licensing agreement for movies and television shows with Liberty Media Corp.’s Starz (LSTZA) unit, as reported by Reuters. Currently, Netflix pays approximately $30.0 million a year as license fees for the deal, which was signed in 2008 and expires in 2012. However, Netflix has yet to renew the agreement and management did not specify the exact amount. Netflix’s current agreement with Starz covers original movies from Sony Corp.

Besides Starz, Netflix went on to sign a number of licensing agreements with Relativity Media and General Electric’s (GE) NBC Universal Domestic Television Distribution division.

But now Apple (Nasdaq: AAPL) is making it even harder… The company recently changed its app policy so that e-book sellers must now hand over a 30 percent cut of all sales made on Apple devices. And while that’s guaranteed to sting even the big players (both Amazon and B&#38;N have eReader apps on the iPad and iPhone), the real victims here are the little guys.

		<description><![CDATA[Netflix Inc. (NFLX) has signed a multi-year agreement with Miramax films, enabling its US members to watch critically acclaimed and popular titles like “Pulp Fiction,” “Good Will Hunting” and “The English Patient” from June. Through this agreement, Netflix will gain the rights of Miramax’s film library that boasts 700 titles.

		<description><![CDATA[Tessera Technologies, Inc. (TSRA) reported first quarter earnings that beat the Zacks Consensus estimate by 16 cents, or 50.0%. Despite a significant revenue decline, Tessera beat the Zacks Consensus due to lower-than-expected expenses and a much lower tax rate. Revenue Tessera’s reported revenue of $67.8 million was down 15.8% sequentially and up 5.5% year over year, at the high end of management’s expectations of $65-68 million (down 16-19% sequentially). The sequential comparison was hurt by the non-renewal of major licenses. Tessera has taken the matter to court, which has ruled in its favor. However, licensees could appeal, so the negative impact is likely to continue for another quarter at least. If the one-time litigation settlement gains were excluded from the year-ago quarter, revenue would be up 10.6%. Royalty and License ]]></description>

Results were, however, not as exceptional as rival Intel Corp’s (INTC), as AMD remains a step behind with its product introductions. However, there were some bright spots, such as its growing involvement with Apple Inc (AAPL). AMD is now operating as a product company, reporting the foundry business under the cost method, given that its share in Globalfoundries has shrunk to 14%. Revenue AMD’s revenues in the last quarter came in at $1.61 billion, 2.5% over the year-ago level, but down 2.2% sequentially on account of seasonality.  This may be considered to be in line with AMD’s expectations ]]></description>
