Salomon analyst Koichiro Chiwata attributed the downgrade to the negative impact excessive stocks of hard disk drives (HDD) and sharp price falls in the United States were expected to have on drive makers.

The decision also reflected an expected oversupply in magneto-resistive heads in 1998 and worries over future prices of these components, Chiwata said.


The quantum cc revealed that quantums MKE joint venture produces about 20% of their MR head requirements (at a loss) internally.
