Oracle could be on the verge of announcing significant price cuts around
the world after its Japanese operation slashed database prices this week.
The company is refusing to comment on speculation, saying chief executive
officer Larry Ellison will be making a major pricing announcement to
coincide with the launch of the 9i database at Oracle OpenWorld later this
month.

Cuts pricing in Japan Dan Verton, Computerworld Oracle Corp.'s Japanese

U.S. users that the cuts herald lower prices here.
Street Fight: Oracle

Forbes.com, June 4, 2001
With sagging earnings and lack of guidance for its soon-to-be-announced
fourth quarter, Oracle has been slapped with no less than nine analyst
downgrades since early March. Shares of the database software provider
have dropped 67% from their 52-week high, giving the stock a latest
12-month price-to-earnings ratio of just 14. Is it time to buy America's
second-largest independent software concern?

Hi,
Few days ago someone posted a link to a newsletter about the slashing of
the prices of Oracle products in Japan and that Larry Ellison would
announce price reductions that will apply worldwide. Someone can send me
the link ??
TIA,
Antonio Belloni
