Corning makes liquid crystal display glass used in flat panel displays, as well as fiber-optic cable products and lab equipment. Asahi is the company's largest competitor in LCD glass, according to Credit Suisse analyst Michael R. Walker. The tank, he said, accounts for 15 percent of the company's LCD capacity, and it is expected to be out of commission until early next year. ADVERTISEMENT "Asahi's shutdown is reminiscent of a similar mishap in 2004, after which Corning gained significant share at several Asahi customers," Walker wrote in a note to investors. • Corning Gains on Rival Plant Shutdown AP (Wed 2:56pm) • A Triple in the Making at Motley Fool (Wed 2:12pm) • Big Winners for Small Investors at Motley Fool (Mon, Sep 18) • Corning Launches High-Throughput Label-Free Drug Screening System Business Wire (Mon, Sep 18) • Who is Telecom Italia's Marco Tronchetti Provera? at Reuters (Fri, Sep 15) • Online Contents at Forbes.com (Fri, Sep 15) • One Scientist's Breakthrough at Forbes.com (Wed, Sep 13) • Best Buy Discusses Flat Panel TVs and Home Theater SeekingAlpha (Wed, Sep 13) • ANS Becomes Newest Member of the Corning Total Access Program(SM) (TAP) Business Wire (Wed, Sep 13) • Jim Cramer's Real Money Radio Recap, Sept. 12 SeekingAlpha (Wed, Sep 13)
