In Reply to: All the analysts are saying HD DVD is toast. Graffo would do Univ a favor by announcing plans to go neutral posted by Jazz Inmate on January 17, 2008 at 16:42:26:
When Warner went public, the ratio went 85:15 in a week. Warner will have problems selling their Harry Potter HD DVD stock at this level,
just look at the amazon sales ranks.
When Universal go public with blu the ratio goes maybe 95:05.
So the HD DVD stock must be sold before Universal can go neutral.
However Graffo cannot lie in public, so his statement is carefully worded.
You are simply impatient:-)
