I think in most cases stock's prices is irrelevant to the compnay's earnings. WDC still have earnings for this FY even if their $90 million charges, well, $10~$15 a share is said to be a fair value.
What about those companies which never made a penny in a year, while their stock is $40-$50? Some one may say stock price is determined based on the quarterly or yearly growth rate, if that is true, I think WDC will definitely be back to $50's when the company's quarter earning resumes to even $.30/share from $.20/share which is the analysts' currently estimate. WDC may be playing a trick now, by lowering earnings estimate for this quarter, the company can easily beat the street estimate in the next quarter. Who knows.
