drbes Wall street could not ignor the constant build up of makret share at 50% share you become a growth company and the momentum players start taking an interest. meanwhile yuou take all the performance preasure off your back from the street. you tel them check with me in 2002 or03 meanwhile...you slowly build market share at the expense of profit. Sanders is his own worst enemy when it comes to expounding profits. AND I know why he does it. Microprocessor selling prices are lucerative compared to cost. mainly due to lack of competive preasures. Since Intel won't let AMD profitably share the market, then the next best strategdy is to be as dispuptive as you can...give the chip away for free... if you can't then sell them at breakeven..you don't make profit but you stay alive and amke things very uncomfortable for your competitor. If you have to file bankruptcy (reorganizational) and continue to undersell in bankruptcy as a deliberate stratgedy. come out of bankruptcy when you have gained production efficiency acheived high production output, a 50% market share and can operate on a profitable bases. buy then you have sawed your competitor in half made his life miserable changed this attitude from arragance to respect. If you continue to play his game he will continue to beat you. High volume procduction is the key it solves almost all the problems, covers and shrinks overhead as a % of volume. gives you cost effieiencies. Brings in more revenue. gives you added respect from the people you supply and from your competitior, derived from a larger market share. which bring new investment interest.
