Larry,

Why are they holding inventory? 2 possible answers ... they don't want to put more pressure on an already weak market or they think they can take advantage of a bounce in prices. I agree with you, these are ice cubes. Likely they will deal with this when they have a really bad quarter (i.e. this Q) and will take an inventory writedown. For some peculiar reason analysts will treat this as an extraordinary item.

regards, Mike
