Financial data has flaws
for a market like SSDs.
- is available too late to provide visibility in fast growing
discontinuous markets,
- and is not available at all for significant companies in the market
which are privately owned.
Search precedes rational decision
making and supplier selection about new products in new markets. And that's why
a high quality search based ranking can provide useful market direction.
That
was part of my thinking - behind this landmark SSD market data series.
And
looking back at the accuracy of the past 28 quarterly reports which have
tracked millions of focused SSD decision makers - there's still nothing to
beat it. |
