MIPS Technologies, Inc. (Public, NASDAQ:MIPS)

The weekly chart shows that shares of MIPS just cleared some resistance from the last five months near the 9.25 level and now if the stock can push past the year high at 10.00, it looks ready for a quick pop up towards 12-13. You might want to check when earnings are due, that could provide the catalyst. Whatever the "reason" for a push past 10.00, there will be 3.8 million shares in a losing position courtesy of our friends the short sellers, hopefully they will panic and chase the stock higher.
