MR, Nope, the phony headline # surprise has already been discounted now by the uncharacteristic pre-announcement of the scam. Now, folks will simply ignore that noise and go to the text to see how much money they really lost. There are now only two points of interest about the report: 1. What one time charges, tax scams, equipment sales, fee repatriations, and other tricks will they use and try to hide this time to turn an operating loss into a cosmetic profit? I have a hunch, and it is only a hunch, that they will use blue smoke and mirrors on the inventory and interest charges this time. 2. Just what was Pinnocchio Bedard talking about when he mentioned a surprise on the balance sheet. Again, I look for some sort of interest rate flim-flam, but I am eager to see what these sharp pencilled boys pull this time. If they put as much effort into their products as they put into fooling investors, they would be bigger than Microsoft. -g-
The fact that they will tart up the eps statement, as usual, does not mean MU will go up. Some of us already know that the Emperor is buck naked and others are starting to stare at the open sores on his private parts. -g- Good luck, MB |
