06:48 Flash Memory Prices Slump as Market Showdown Looms -- Reuters

Two companies that dominate the lucrative market for memory chips used in digital cameras and music players are slashing prices to stoke demand and undermine emerging rivals, industry officials and analysts said. The move by Samsung Electronics Co Ltd and Toshiba Corp is a bonanza for consumers snapping up flash memory devices in increasing numbers and sets the stage for a fierce battle in the most profitable part of the memory industry. Industry experts said Samsung and Japan's Toshiba are taking a pre-emptive strike against companies including Infineon Technologies AG, Hynix Semiconductor Inc and Micron Technology Inc that are trying to break the virtual duopoly. (Briefing.com Note: On certains days this report would be viewed as a clear negative for names such as SNDK, LEXR and FLSH. However, with market set to gap up, could very well see these names show early strength. Watch for potential fade if market begins to soften after the open).
