This is clearly a pretty good performance in what's a seasonally quiet period. The fact that shares are down is simply a reflection of the previous good run the stock has had.

Nevertheless, the world economic environment is continuing to pressure our business even as we move into a seasonally stronger part of the year.
John Dillon
We had a very good quarter. Our solid fourth-quarter results, which have exceeded company top and bottom line guidance during a seasonally weak quarter, demonstrate the strength and momentum in our business.
Charles Zhang
The state figures are seasonally adjusted.

Given how remarkably strong some sectors were last month seasonally adjusted, IT was a little bit disappointing.
Robert Olivier
Wolves need to act naturally, and they won't be able to do that if they are confined to the park. When they are seasonally unemployed during the winter, they will move outside the park.
Rob Edwards
The seasonally adjusted annual (industry-wide) sales rate in the last six months has exceeded 18 million. Going forward, we anticipate that consumer demand will moderate in response to higher interest rates. Still, consumer confidence remains high and that bodes well for healthy auto sales.
Bob Rewey
The November seasonally adjusted figure was much better than we expected, but this will probably be only a temporary slowdown in the rise in jobless numbers and does not mark the start of a turnaround.
Manuela Preuschl
The response has been good, but lingerie is not a year-round demand. Seasonally we have good times. We have the numbers, we're just looking for ways to sustain it.
Linda Collins
Retail hiring between October and December was by far the smallest in years. We wonder if those 'not hired' for Christmas will 'not be let go,' as traditionally would happen, in January. If so, that will look like a gain in the seasonally adjusted numbers.
Russell Sheldon
A stronger Canadian dollar, seasonally weak coated pricing, and higher labor related expenses affected first-quarter results.
Arnold Nemirow
I think it's [management] being overly conservative. Given that it is the seasonally weakest quarter, the last thing they want to do [is disappoint]. They want to beat again.
John Coyle
It's apparent that the Labor Department had some problems seasonally adjusting for the Veterans Day holiday.
Ted Wieseman
The most impressive part for me was that during a seasonally slow period, AOL added 3/4 of a million subscribers, ... That's a remarkably strong number.

Sales were particularly strong in those categories that were expanded following last year's exit from the appliance business and which seasonally peak in December, ... These categories include video game hardware, software and accessories; digital cameras; personal computer software and accessories; and DVD software.

Q3 is normally a seasonally stronger quarter for government and education sales, ... This suggests Gateway continues to lose share in this segment to lower cost competitors.
Richard Gardner
This is especially encouraging given the fact that the first quarter is generally expected to be a seasonally down quarter for the semiconductor industry.
Bill Aylesworth
Seasonally adjusted net mortgage lending fell back to around the recent trend in January and the level of approvals, in particular for equity withdrawal, held up well in what is traditionally a slow month.
David Dooks
We would expect the seasonally adjusted total to decline in the coming months, but there is not likely to be any major turnaround because companies are still restructuring and the structural problems on the labor market are still there.
Juergen Michels
Overall, demand seems to be behaving seasonally. It's not strong out there but it's not as bad as the market seems to indicate.
Tai Nguyen
The first quarter is seasonally always the strongest, but coming off the huge year we had in '03, people figured it (fixed income) would be fine, but nothing great, ... But it's done much better than expected, and that's important for these banks.
Jeffery Harte
In the short term, ahead of the Indian Festival Season, we see seasonally flat demand, and waning investment interest, causing consolidation in the gold price [over the next 3 to 6 months].
Steve Shepherd
Difficulties of seasonally adjusting the retail sector around year-end suggest that the two-month average -- about flat -- is a more reliable gauge of hiring trends.
Maury Harris
You are entering a seasonally softer period, so you don't want to have inventory at a worse level in December than where you were exiting the September quarter.
Patrick Ho
While growing 5,6% (in January) compared with January last year, production in the sector declined on a seasonally adjusted basis by 2,7% from December.
Shireen Darmalingam
It's a very good number for January. But should we get carried away with the seasonally adjusted number? No. We still expect a slowdown in 2006, no question about it.
Phillip Neuhart
January auto sales were clearly much better than expected. We are on a pace to see a month-to-month increase in the seasonally adjusted sales pace, perhaps to around 17.7 million units or so.
Stephen Stanley
Going forward, we expect the economy to show positive year-on-year and seasonally adjusted rates in the quarters ahead, but the 1.8 percent Central Bank estimate appears to have more downside than upside risk at the moment.
Michael Gavin
Our seasonally weak third quarter was exacerbated by several factors.
