QUANTUM CORP shares rose more than 12% on confidence that the company would be less volitile than its peers in the increasingly competitive disk drive market. "Quantum stock has been slaughtered for the last week or two and people have probably figured out that this is the company which is least likely to be hurt in what is clearly a downturn in the industry," said analyst John Rossi of BancAmerica Robertson Stephens. Quantum is less reliant on cheaper disk drives where there is intense price pressure, it has an extrememly profitable high-end tape storage business and has completed the transition to magneto-resitive head technology.
