By Staff -- Purchasing, 3/15/2007

Analysts at UBS and Lehman Brothers and independent distributor Fusion Trade agree with commentary from Micron and SanDisk that sales tags for NAND flash products will tumble by 30–40% this quarter. Lehman analyst Tim Luke writes: "Recent commentary from industry players suggest both the DRAM and NAND markets may continue to experience significant average selling prices pressure in the first half of 2007 owing to excess capacity."
