>> 2nd Calendar Quarter price change (monthly rate):

Mark, The 2nd Q had the steepest decline in the collection of data in your report. Yet earnings were at their best level in a long time.

So now that each of the DD companies had very down cast CC projections for the current Q (Sept). Yet your data shows less decline than Q2. That means the CC's maybe were too pessimistic.

Have you noticed that analysts now project large losses in Q3 ? How can that be if prices are firmer than Q2 ? Something doesn't add up. I think your data is good, and the analysts are wrong by a mile. I also think desktop unit sales will be up in Q3 by HDD, MXTR and WDC.

Anyway, I doubled my maxtor shares, and increased HDD and WDC. If RDRT can go up 100% on no news, and it looks like it will do another 100% next week. Anything is possible. Both up or down. But I think from here it is up.

Thanks
Sarmad
