Taiwan - Stocks

Does anyone have any recent news on E INK HOLDINGS INC TWD10(Taiwan OTC: 8069.TWO)? There has been a few large sell offs recently, and the company's homepage is really outdated and not well maintained.

This is the company that does the e-ink displays for Amazon's Kindle e-book reader.

E Ink Holdings Inc. fell the most in more than four months in Taipei trading after Engadget reported that Qualcomm Inc. will unveil products that use Mirasol screens from the first quarter in 2011.

E Ink slid 7 percent to NT$54.80 as of 11:58 a.m., set for the most since May 25. Mirasol screens are electronic displays that replicate the look of paper. E Ink is a supplier of such displays for Amazon.com Inc.’s Kindle electronic book reader. Emily Kilpatrick, a spokeswoman for San Diego-based Qualcomm, didn’t pick up calls at her office.

It looks like you are right about this. Do you know if E-Ink has any response to that new technology?

I guess that Mirasol display cannot really move Qualcomm's stock too much, since they are already so huge.

Here's another link comparing E-Ink , Mirasol and others.

http://nextparadigms.com/2010/08/27/e-i ... -the-best/

Notes:
From the article, it seems that Mirasol (Qualcomm) have very huge advantage over E-Ink.

And, if I am Qualcomm, I won't be pitching just 'Mirasol' to the clients. It will be the entire ecosystem including chipset etc.

The other area that I do not favour E-Ink is its listing on TWOTC.

DJ MARKET TALK: Taiwan Shares Rebound, +2.9%; 7148 S/T Cap -Horizon

1008 [Dow Jones] Taiwan shares rebound sharply on techs and financials, tracking gains on Wall Street and in regional markets.

Horizon Securities analyst Benson Huang, says investors are taking a short break from the heavy selling, spurred by hopes that the European Central Bank will cut interest rates.

But he adds, today's rebound is likely "just a matter of a day or two" as investor sentiment is still weak.

The Taiex is up 2.9% at 7076.92, off its 7085.52 intraday high; Huang tips the index to be capped at 7148 short-term.

Catcher (2474.TW) rises by 6.8% its daily limit to NT$164.00, MediaTek (2454.TW) is also up 6.9% its daily limit at NT$327.00; TSMC (2330.TW) is 2.7% higher at NT$69.00.

Hon Hai (2317.TW) rises 1.5% to NT$69.60, Fubon Financial (2881.TW) gains 3.3% to NT$31.05, Cathay Financial (2882.TW) climbs 1.6% to NT$34.75.

Compal Electronics (2324.TW) is up 4.2% at NT$30.75 on a plan to set up a joint venture with Lenovo (0992.HK) in China.

AAPL may lower their order by 25% so would your Taiwanese Supplier be affected ?

Taiwan's TAIEX is expected to be by far the worst performing market out of the 19 indexes in the Reuters poll.

Having already lost around 20 percent of its value so far this year, analysts see the TAIEX falling a further 5 percent from now until the end of the year and almost 9 percent by mid-2012, as the tech-heavy index suffers badly from slowing exports to struggling Western economies.
