Guys they are doing stuff witn UMC as well. Possibly moving business there as UMC issued upbeat guidance.

Yes of course, but that's not the point. I don't think they're cutting back manufacturing because they're PROJECTING a collapse in sales because of ATI. They're cutting back because they ALREADY have inventory for all of the rest of the year. At current sales rates, I assume.

I doubt a company would actually forecast that its own sales would collapse.

So my read is, ATI's upcoming inroads will produce even further pain.
