Is the author of this report on another planet.

COMS is guiding the street lower for GM. Inventories are up 140 million from last quarter.

This stock is going to get whacked.

Comments/Regards.

3Com Offers Encouraging Report On Efforts to Cut Its Inventories -- An INTERACTIVE JOURNAL News Roundup

Now, which institution/s paid for such ridiculous advertising in order to offload COMS shares. Where's the encouragement?

Revenue is down; inventory is up (and if Eric B says COMS met inventory goals, then goalsetting is at issue); costs are obviously not contained; merger and tax credits cloud an already abysmal report.

Tomorrow the CNBC t-heads will be touting COMS as an opportunity, rationalizing the stock upward. PT Barnum would be proud.
