AOSL... sobering comments? Stock down more than 10%...

"While we continue to take actions to realign our cost structure due to the challenging business environment, including the reduction of capital spending and operating expense, we will persist in looking for ways to streamline our operations and optimize our business model," said Dr. Mike Chang, CEO of AOS. "We expect our reduced factory loading at both our front-end and back-end to negatively impact our margins in the short term.

However we continue to be optimistic about our business opportunity beyond the March quarter supported by increasing design wins, bookings and backlog. During the March quarter we are keenly focused on tightly aligning the front-end and back-end capabilities to further improve our efficiencies throughout the company."

re: coveted commie Chavez bites the dust finally, Venezuelan "caudillo" ("leader") Chavez bites the dust at the age of 58. Not wishing him well, because others will have to dig óut the economy from his failing strategy of "resource nationalism". Anyway, for us as investors he will be known as a nationalizer of assets. To the point that he nationalized concrete producers and homebuilders. One of the most exposed "commies" of our times. May he rot in hell - an eye for an eye and an apple for an apple !! finance.yahoo.com CROSSY
