comments forward positive results
I think the Q4 results will be terrible. I think comments going forward will be much more positive than they've been in the past.
earnings month next picture
At least for the next month or two, the earnings picture is going to be pretty dismal.
worse
I would have expected, even without FD, to see more preannouncements this quarter. Things are worse out there.
earnings growth revenue slowing
The story on slowing earnings growth and revenue growth is not over.
distribute market research
These independents don't want to participate in a market to distribute their research to everyone.
peak takes weeks worse
It always takes a toll. These are the peak weeks for warnings and it's going to be worse than normal, but we probably need a little of that.
deviation expected percent quarter
Any deviation from that 15 percent for the quarter is expected to be lower, not higher.
darn good intel investors job provide tools
Intel is doing a good job with the tools they provide investors and analysts. They're not perfect, but they're darn close.
market meeting move optimistic twist
I think they'll (the Fed) move at the meeting but I think the market is grasping at any straws you can twist into an optimistic story.
results
I think that Q4 results will be terrible.
addition capital consumer current faster memory needed pc products ran running several slowing time upgrade
In addition to a slowing of consumer and capital spending, it may be that current PC products are running out of gas. I haven't even thought about upgrading my PC for several years. You used to have to upgrade all the time because you ran out of memory or needed faster processing.
beat definitely earnings fourth further maybe negative prospects somewhere
I think we'll probably end up somewhere around negative 4 or negative 5 percent. Some will probably beat expectations, but not many. Down earnings is definitely in the cards, and the prospects of maybe even down earnings further in the fourth quarter.
comments
I think it's going to show up in some comments. I think you will get some comments that (earnings) would have been better if it hadn't been for the euro.
time
Now we'll see if this time it's going to be different.
