Great explanation and I agree with your conclusions.

That's what I think has happened this month. A B2B of 1.30 is still very very good.

One way to look at this... with compounding, a Book-to-Bill of 1.3 means that a company can add 1 yr of shipments (AT CURRENT RATES!) to its backlog in about 3 months. That is incredible to me. 8)
