Jeff, Fuji has been gaining market share by selling at a loss in the US market while keeping magins high in their home market. This is a classic Japanese ploy made possible by a population willing to endure unfair pricing in their own market from their own companies. Fiji's four rolls for five dollars (at K-Mart) is below cost. By undercutting Kodak in the US market Fuji can gain market share without making any profit. Only when Kodak is on the ropes will Fuji capitalize. There is a practice in Japan of intimadating distributors and retail outlets with veiled threats of withholding product which would be illegal here. As long as the Japanese people allow this practice it will continue. This case is in court. But Kodak did not produce Japanese language film cartons until 1989! How lame was that?
And now the digital age. Kodak is a short cantidate in my opinion.
Regards, Glenn
