EMC shares tumble after Q2 investor briefing

Consoles itself with nLayers retail therapy

Shares in EMC hit a 14-month low on Wall Street yesterday following comments from its finance chief. Bill Teuber said Q2 expectations were unchanged from the firm's 20 April announcement, and that it "still had a lot to do".

EMC shares slid to a low of $11.86 on the report. They recovered to $12.12, but were still 1.9 per cent down on their value on Tuesday. Trading volumes were more than double the three-month daily average.

The storage monster reiterated a revenue prediction of $2.66bn for Q2. More from Reuters here.
