So, what can we take from this?
1. They are worried that current Sharp USA Dealers will jump ship and accelerate Sharp's demise home and abroad.
2. Sharp is not currently negotiating the sale of businesses, well usually when you hear of something this big you can bet your bottom dollar that indeed there is something going on. I'm sure Nikkei would not report or speculate and then state that "Sharp plans to sell......"
For years on the forums, we've heard and found out that most of the speculation becomes fact. There's no doubt Sharp is in trouble, I guess it's going tobe a crap shoot as to what divisions they will embrace and which ones they will disable.
