Oracle says customers delaying spending

• Oracleの四半期決算が発表された
• 市場予想を下回る数値だったので、株価は10%近く下落

Oracle on Wednesday said some corporate customers had delayed their spending on new software in recent weeks, triggering a 7 per cent fall in its shares in after-market trading as Wall Street suffered another bout of nerves about a wider slowdown in technology demand.

However, company executives also said the pipeline of potential new business entering the all-important fourth quarter of the company’s fiscal year was much stronger than usual at this stage.

• Oracleからすると、客ってのはパイプラインに乗っかっていて、新バージョン公開になると自動的にお金を払ってくれるものなんでしょ...

• もう、この際みんな一斉にMySQLに乗り換えよう
• 乗換のための資金を稼ぐのは簡単。
• みんなでOracleの株を空売りすればいいのだ。
