Three companies agree to plead guilty for fixing prices of
electrolytic capacitors

The US Department of Justice announced last week that three companies
have agreed to plead guilty for their roles in a conspiracy to fix
prices for
electrolytic capacitors sold to customers in the US and elsewhere.

"The Antitrust Division has now charged five companies and one
individual for their participation in this international price-fixing
conspiracy," Deputy Assistant Attorney General Brent Snyder of the
Justice Department's Antitrust Division, said in an August 23 Justice
Department news release.

"The electrolytic capacitors conspiracy affected millions of American
consumers who use electronic devices containing capacitors every day."
