Laggard bear arguments still trying to deny reality on inventory are simply self-delusional indulgences.

?? 284 (the number of lasers in inventory) is almost 1/2 of all the lasers installed around the world. That is, by any measure, a lot. And it is at least 4 times the number of lasers they got orders for last quarter (assuming $30M in orders at $500K apiece.). Again, that is a lot.

I happen to believe that when TSMC, UMC, Intel, Samsung, NEC, ... start ordering it will come in a flood and empty the inventory fairly quickly, but I can certainly understand the worry. It does not seem an unreasonable one.
