I agree with you, Kash. Quote from the article below:

Kash,

I am forecasting a (0.20-0.30) overall after writeoffs.
But actual biz. before write offs will be positive earnings.


I hope your forecasts about K7 are more accurate than your NSM earnings predictions!

I dumped my NSM right shortly after the earnings report. I'll probably buy it back in the low teens.
