Here is specific information on the financial status of the 3 largest south korean chip manufacturers: pubs.cmpnet.com I keep asking myself: what lender in his right mind would lend $$$ to these companies for capital equipment improvements??? These companies have been barely surviving on operating cash flow....There is absolutely no margin for error here folks. If memory prices deteriorate further these companies (divisions) will go belly up. In fact, all indications are that they should have gone belly up some time ago. regards
