The retail channel is currently facing serious excessive inventory troubles as most retailers are still unable to finish digesting their Ivy Bridge-based PC inventories and could be working on clearing the inventories for the rest of 2013, according to sources from channel retailers.
Despite the approach of the second-half peak season, most channel retailers are keeping inventories at a level 60-70% of that in previous years
Well, which is it? Are they having trouble clearing Ivy Bridge systems, or are they keeping inventories at 60-70% of historic numbers?
Or are they having trouble clearing enough Ivy Bridge systems to get to 60-70% as a target? That sounds more reasonable, and implies they are probably at or below historical inventory levels.
