"After Thursday's close, Motorola (MOT) said it will slash 10 percent of its worldwide work force in the next year and take a $1.95 billion pretax charge due to stiff pricing competition and decaying demand in the semiconductor business. The development, largely brought on by the Asian economic crisis, will probably result in second-quarter operating earnings being "well below" consensus forecasts. The firm said an operating loss in the quarter is possible. Wall Street had expected Motorola to earn 25 cents a share in the quarter."

Yes it does look as though MOT will be tomorrow's disaster d' jour.
