Got Problems? Blame Asia-the new whipping boy!!!

Rosemary and thread: Here is an interesting way look at this Asia thing. From San Jose Mercury.
-------------------------------------------------------------------

Some firms use Asia as an excuse when the problems run deeper Investors are playing one of their favorite games when it comes to high-tech stocks: Punish everyone.

BLAME Asia. A convenient scapegoat makes every problem easier to understand, and Asia's woes have become the excuse du jour for companies whose earnings disappoint Wall Street. To be sure, companies -- high-tech and the other kind -- with big sales in Asia are being hurt by the turmoil there. Last week's victims included 3Com Corp. (Nasdaq, COMS), Nike Inc. (NYSE, NKE) and Minnesota Mining & Manufacturing Co. (NYSE, MMM).
