Count the number of times you see the words decreasing and slowing. Put the any applicable noun after them eg Margins, Sales, and you pretty much have a quick summary of their report. No wonder it is up AH. -g-

AMAT inventories WAY up, 1.7 billion vs 1.5 billion yr ago.

New orders 2.43 billion, DOWN from 3.6 billion just last quarter....and only up 1 percent from year ago quarter.

Looks bad to me...we'll see what the guidance sounds like.
