Semi's have historically and statistically been the worst for unusual stock price movements in N. Cal.
One reason is that the local Mountain View bars are so concentrated with overworked employees, lots of them having ties from their point of origin, that the information seekers can have a field day for any company that does not have proper controls over inside information.
An unscrupulous individual could just pay an attractive gal to spend some time at a bar, etc.
That doesn't mean it's legal, it's just easy. You need to understand the folks who control it. The 'fingerprints' are everywhere for anyone to see.
There is an order in Silicon Valley stock price movement. It's very obvious. If you or your 'fund' don't see it, probably you should call us. We see everything in Silicon Valley. Don't use someone who wants to make $ from you, instead use someone who could make $ for you.

More Insider Trading Uncovered in Silicon Valley
We don't think the world is unenlightened enough to believe the following:
...that some junior cubical worker (e.g. finance dept.) at a pretty large tech. company is capable of having free access, easy access, and comprehensive access to inside financial information and more, and having an excellent organized chain of conspiracy heading straight to Wall Street that has caused massive trading volume irregularities, huge and frequent vacillations in stock price, too many law suits to count, timing irregularities with trading windows and insider activity including stock hype, obvious irregularities in options volumes near expiration dates, and an especially obvious price movement before and after an earnings report... we call it weird statistics...
- and all this when lots of companies have a special officer/VP/exec staff member who does nothing except manage relations with Wall Street? -
... to believe that the cubical worker acted alone and was able to secure all the illegally disseminated information in one of the following ways: 1) without any help from anyone more senior in the company, or 2) by simply taking advantage for many years of a free-for-all unregulated financial environment established at the company?
We think another guess is in order, especially important if an investor wants to win instead of lose. Be careful who helps you in Silicon Valley.
