Look, if MB is right, and the DLT inventory problem is over by end of June, and if what the street has been expecting for awhile is right, and the drive down cycle is over by end of summer, then QNTM should be hitting on all cylinders by the fall--about 6 months away. WS looks ahead 6-9 months. Ergo, buying interest. The IFs have to come through, though. Risk is the name of the game. No free lunches. Sam

QNTM up! I'm getting really suspicious. Looks like lots of trades of 1000, 1200 and 1500 shares. The statement about being break even or "slightly better" is obviously ambiguous by design. What in the world does that mean? "Slightly better" than what??? Last quarter, same quarter last year? This statement is suspiciously "Clintonesque." I can't conceive of why they'd phrase it in that way unless there was some sort of motive to manipulate the market short term while appearing to be "good guys" by pre-announcing. Anyone care to read between the lines here?
