AMAT to make quarter? When pigs fly!<NG> marketwatch.com Applied Materials adds shutdown days By Nicole Maestri, CBS.MarketWatch.com Last Update: 5:05 PM ET Nov. 9, 2001 SANTA CLARA, Calif. (CBS.MW) -- Applied Materials has added six additional shutdown days around the upcoming holidays, the company confirmed Friday. The semiconductor equipment maker (AMAT: news, chart, profile) will be shutting down its business for the three days before Thanksgiving and the three days following New Year's. Those closures are in additional to the company's normally scheduled shutdown between Christmas and New Year's. "We said earlier that we might add additional shutdown days around the holiday time," said spokesman Jeff Lettes, "So it was logical" to expand the shutdown at that time. Lettes would not comment as to why Applied needed to shut down business for the extra days, saying the company will announce its fourth-quarter results Wednesday, after the market closes, and it would be "not be appropriate" to comment on that at this time. HO HO HO! I think Fred Hickey nailed this one to the wall.
