Maybe the "fear of the unkown" is worse than having some statement out in the open. I sense that there is an expectation that Quantum will need to issue some new "guidance" to the analyst community and until the company either does so or says that they are not being effected, that the fear will be blown out of proportion. The fact is that analysts and investors are now just speculating that things are or are not well at Quantum given the new circumstances in DD pricing and Asian market worries. I suggest that investors strongly request that QNTM management resolve this issue by holding a conference call or at least issuing a statement. Call into and send faxes and letters to the CEO and CFO to express your concerns and requests. Maybe if enough of us do so we will get a response, and hopefully, it will be the kind of response that will ease the fear and take this stock much higher.

QNTM as of 2:05 p.m. et.. Qntm - 25 1/8 - down 2 3/8 (unjustifiable compare to WDC) WDC - 19 5/16 - down 1 13/16 What gives???? Who the heck are the foolish people dumping QNTM which has an excellent fundamentals short and long term compare to WDC which is fundamentally weak?? FYI: A guess analysts (Vincent F. I believe)appeared on CNBC late this morning and suggested a hold on QNTM because of the problem of disk drive as a whole sectors and QNTM stock prices is being SYMPHATETIC to the sectors. He suggest to BUY on weakness/dips since QNTM has a "great" fundamentals but he also reiterated the "tape drive" business as a strong revenues/earnings growth for QNTM which barely has competition. This make it an exception and seperated it against the "dog" of disk drive manufacturers like WDC and SEG... just a thought.. eL...
