David Richardson

What it comes down to is it really is a love-hate relationship. Certainly, would the labels like to have more control over pricing? Absolutely. Would they like to have more influence on format availability? Absolutely.
Matt Kleinschmit
Wal-Mart is an exception because it is able to have such pricing power and such influence over suppliers that it is difficult for anyone to compete on price. What it means for the customer is that price will make you buy, but it doesn't give you the same satisfaction as a high level of service.
Claes Fornell
The purpose of this investigation is to thoroughly examine pricing practices in the industry and get to the bottom of what appear to be some illegal pricing practices.
Darren Dopp

Thijs Berkelder
We can now keep up with changes in pricing and product information, as well as provide an up-to-date list of vendors to our franchisees.

Sir John Holt

Brian Stewart

John Gossling
It's not like we can increase our pricing. We have a fixed price schedule based on insurance payments. (The additional fuel cost) is coming right off the top. You can see how this would affect our business plan.
Nancy Edwards
People were pricing in some kind of China revaluation and we had one, but it was very small. So there was disappointment with the degree of the China move.

Richard Florida
All we did was look at the pricing. We looked at hundreds of documents and came up with 18 that got letters, which is a fairly small number.

Thijs Berkelder
In Japan's case, consumer demand has not been that strong for a long time so companies haven't had that much pricing power. In China, consumer demand is reasonably strong but there is very aggressive competition.

Larry Jones
A year ago, the industry came out aggressive with pricing to the farmers. I think the farmers responded by planting more acres.

Brian Barish
We have built up an infrastructure that exceeds current -- and I would say likely -- demand for the foreseeable future. As in any industry, irrational pricing and uneconomic returns can only take place for so long.

The demographics of the area (Stratham and Exeter) are perfect. What we are offering is a one-stop place for everyone with competitive pricing and a wide range of merchandising.
David Floyd

Bill Jensen
Any time you have new product, you get better pricing.
Mark Laneve
On pricing, absolutely, we are going to be competitive. Obviously these are the devices we have high targets for.

Rob Palombi
The rise in output prices confirms signs... that firms are clawing back some pricing power.
Alan Clarke

Kevin Callahan
Result in limited pricing power.
Martin Sorrell
We are confident in the integrity of our retail network and their respect for the Saturn pricing philosophy.
Jill Lajdziak
What we need is a message generation contractor to act in a consultative role, with the ability to give flexible pricing plans. They would be able to negotiate against different carriers.

Cindy Gordon

Jim Stuart
We had strong pricing and had volume growth in beer for the first time in a decade. On top of that we are taking costs out of the business.
Trevor O'hoy
Aggressive pricing by chemical producers has offset most of the short- term challenges of higher costs, but the potential for sustained high natural gas prices has meaningful longer-term implications for the chemicals industry.
Kyle Loughlin
Life companies have the ability to offer flexibility in terms and structure that CMBS, just by the nature of the market, can't offer. Life companies are not winning business because they are giving that last dollar, but they can be competitive on pricing and structure of terms.
Jeff Majewski
Jon also won the student accident quote, for pricing reasons, as well.
Becky Garrett
If you look at the industry, the March and June quarters tend to be down in demand and aggressive in pricing. I think some of the investment community has forgotten that.
Charles Pope
In spite of the Gateway announcement, there seems to be some firming in demand for PCs and flash memory. Pricing is starting to improve. And for IT services, capacity utilization is finally starting to improve.
Adam Adelman
We think it's very important. It diversifies us from a supply standpoint, and it can lead to increased pricing competition, which could lead to lower prices.
David Trusty
Our feeling is that we don't want to go ram ourselves down people's throats but we also want to be able to make ourselves really accessible. I mean, that's our whole thing with the low pricing. It's just about making it accessible to people who are curious without necessarily spoon feeding everyone, you know?
Guy Picciotto
We've had a very quiet period for inflation for a long time and as foreign economies improve, there's likely to be a little upside pressure on pricing.

We think there needs to be more oversight and accountability over the prescription drug industry and their pricing practices.
Anthony Wright

Mihir Vora

There's no pricing capacity for anything. Food prices are falling; manufactured prices are seeing stagnation at best.
Jing Ulrich
Pricing is important, but it's not driving the train.
Mike Paxton
Market pricing has shifted to a September-December start to the easing cycle. The New Zealand dollar should consolidate further.
Sean Comber

James Reddoch
There are discounts on the per-user pricing from the second year onwards.
Steve Waite
That's still very strong gas pricing.
Brian Macke
If Americans could legally access prescription drugs outside the United States, then drug companies would be forced to re-evaluate their pricing strategy.
Chuck Grassley
In all honesty, it's absolutely impossible for anyone to accurately predict what gas prices are going to do, even just one week from now, simply because of the many variables that contribute to the overall pricing equation.
Greg Seiter
There were some concerns about paid-search pricing, ... but we observed no obvious changes in advertiser behavior during the quarter and that seems to be borne out by Yahoo!'s results.
Derek Brown
For the moment, we would like to strengthen our co-operation with local companies to provide better pricing and risk evaluation for our clients.
Brian O'hara
The biggest change we made in June was we asked for peoples' information before we gave them the car-pricing information. After we made that change, a lot more of our visitors stuck around on the site.
Jon Christensen
Metro appears to be establishing itself in the Ontario environment just as pricing and promotion heats up.
Jim Durran
We believe the tight supply environment may be unraveling faster than we previously anticipated, which does not bode well for pricing and bookings relative to our previous expectations.
Chris Danely

John Simley
The more volume you run over a network, the better your pricing will be.

Lim Boon Chuan
We haven't announced pricing yet, but I think it's compelling given the alternative. It will probably be about 10 cents to the dollar when compared to replacing radios. That's a bargain.
Charles Giancarlo
We're pricing in a 90 percent chance that the Fed will cut (by half a percentage point).
Michael Boss
The aim is that it will lead to premium pricing and more sales.
David Steel
The reports were an early indication that the pricing outlook may not be as good as one would hope. Last night's results and tonight's will give a sense of what 2006 will look like.
Nick Pirsos
At CNET, we are committed to building the Internet's largest database of products and prices for our large and loyal audience of computer and technology enthusiasts, ...

Kevin Mckenzie
These positive trends in pricing and better returns are likely to continue for years, maybe decades.
James Valentine
Exploring additional pricing actions.
Roger Deromedi
We think pricing will also remain firm with the increased awareness among consumers about flu vaccinations.

Ben Reitzes
Whilst activity levels may have improved over the autumn of 2005 on the back of more realistic pricing, it does not automatically follow that prices will start to rise.
Richard Donnell
The market is already pricing in that (the debt upgrade) is coming. That improves the country's (economic) perspective.
Carlos Samano
We intend to provide some pretty aggressive pricing and packaging alternatives for the channel that they can take directly to their customers. We also hope to create more services opportunities around our security- and access-management offerings and now the event-management offerings.
John Dragoon
Seldom mentioned, the totality of these expenses ultimately falls exclusively on the consumer, since each malpractice award translates ultimately to increased malpractice insurance premiums, which, in turn, translates to either higher healthcare costs, fewer physicians (with less competitive pricing pressure), or both.
Michael Johns
[Dell's] model of jumping into a market when it is at its fastest pace of expansion and establishing aggressive pricing is why Dell has not hit its stride yet in blade servers. They have OK numbers, but it is hardly a super-fast ramp-up.
Joe Gonzales
If you assume that the markets are effectively pricing in 2.75 percent rates by the end of the third quarter and have been doing that really since the end of last year, there is nothing that they are hearing from ECB members is really altering that perception.
Simon Derrick
There is pricing power for cement makers and it could improve their profitability.
Rajat Jain
This concept is aimed at adding value to the service of airfreight forwarders, and naturally it will command a premium in terms of pricing.

Sharon Spratley
The upside was due to a strong pickup in industrial demand late in the quarter and solid pricing gains.
David Begleiter
We thought it was rich in the $38.50 range. So we are a bit surprised by this nosebleed pricing.

It's all about convenience and pricing and Wal-Mart understands that better than everyone else -- that's why they are the No. 1 retailer in the world.
Stephany Sofos
We're trying to restore some sanity to the pricing environment in our industry.
Mark Laneve
But what is even more astonishing is that corporations can live in an environment with little pricing power and still earn very handsome profits.
Rosanne Cahn
Whether the minutes will tell us with any great clarity what lies ahead remains to be seen but at least for the moment the market is basically pricing in two more 25 basis points hikes.
Robert Rennie
We're being extremely aggressive in our pricing of the satellite navigation functionality because we know it's going to be one of the most desirable technology applications this Christmas selling period.
Carl Freer
In the past, when we had the tremendous run up in fuel, we also had a recession. Those two things together clobbered the industry. Now the economy is moving ahead, and carriers will have a little more flexibility on the pricing side.
David Swierenga
This move serves to give commercial banks more discretion in pricing so that they can effectively balance the returns with cost and manage risks.
Hu Xiaolian
What we're getting here is Italian-style quality that people know and love -- with Chinese pricing. That sounds like a winning combination to me.
Steve Schneider
The market went from pricing in another 25-basis-point hike from about 60 percent to almost a 100 percent chance over the past month or so.
Kevin Kruszenski
We're not totally getting rid of the three-tier pricing system.
Robert Rentsch
That's really good pricing for a nearly new property, compared to comparable 10- to 15-year-old properties for sale in the area.
Jack Mccabe
Attorney General Cox supports modernizing the item pricing law by using available technology. As long as consumers know the price of each individual item.

Rob Patterson
Companies with pricing power will likely perform well and capital-related companies will likely outperform consumer-related companies.
Robert Doll
Germany had priced itself out of the market by the late-1990s. It is basically pricing itself back into the market.

David Snyder
The market was pricing in Fed funds rate at 4.25 percent by the year end at one point, now it has been pushed back to 3.75 percent. The dollar will struggle in this environment.
Naeem Wahid
During the time it took to resolve the lawsuit, construction prices had increased so drastically that we were unable to build Icon based on its original pricing.
Marty Burger
Just talking about (the discounts), it was clear that if we were going to come with an employee pricing program, we had to make it better, and/or when we started talking about it we needed to do it in a different way.
Mike Aberlich
Prepayment penalties have been around since the beginning of mortgages. They are part of the pricing with many of these loans, and there's nothing wrong with that. What's wrong is when you're told you don't have one and then you find out later that you do.
Chuck Cross
We believe investors need to wait to buy the stock until the market better understands if and when Intel's aggressive pricing strategy, which we believe in part caused this preannouncement, begins to have a negative impact on AMD's fundamentals.
James Covello
What drives this business now is pricing its products correctly and making the right assumptions on costs. They also are entering into areas that will be more growth driven in the future.
