EMC stock reaches record as fear of rivals
wanes

By Bloomberg News, 09/19/99

OPKINTON - Shares of EMC Corp., the top maker of corporate
computer storage systems, rose to a record on optimism that
competition from International Business Machines Corp. and
Hewlett-Packard Co. is not as great as expected.

EMC rose 31/8 to 707/8 Friday after earlier touching a record 717/8. The
shares have gained about 67 percent this year as the Internet's surging
growth has increased demand for large systems to store Web pages, e-mail,
and business-to-business transactions.

EMC sales people said that the company is seeing less competition from
onetime partner H-P and that customers are delaying evaluating IBM's
newest storage product - the Shark - for a year, Credit Suisse First Boston
analyst Amit Chopra said.

'EMC's third quarter appears to be a carbon copy of the second quarter,
with strong ... software sales likely to produce an upside surprise,' Chopra
said.
