Japanese LCD makers prepare for new realities amid a glut
Article Abstract:
Japanese liquid crystal display (LCD) manufacturers engaged in a massive $2.5 billion expansion campaign in 1995. The expansion has resulted in rapidly declining prices because of oversupply.

Most Japanese LCD makers agree the keys to maintaining existing market shares will be pricing and innovation.
