in defense of LDK's 2 perceived "inventory" issues,

1) the $30m "non-cuurent inventory", ie, lower grade poly material that can't be used within a month,

I have written quite some on this one. Just to summarize, I can see that LDK believes

1.a) these materials are not "obsolete", as they are being used actively but will be used in accelerated rate as LDK ramps up its wafer capacity very steeply, (doubled in 2007, doubling in 2008 and 2009)

1.b) these materials apprecited in market price

1.c) there are raw materials unlike slow moving finished good which can't find a market,

I believe LDK has a very strong case.  It's absurd to mark down something went up in price.

my belief is that market will quick get arms around this artificial "inventory" issue and discount it appropraitly.
Or, imho, it's really a non-issue. 

2) the second, increase of $150m total inventory from 9/30/2007, end of Q3 to 12/31/2007, end of Q4 2007.
