**PIONEER CORP FALLS ON NET LOSS F'CAST, DEUTSCHE DOWNBEAT**

Pioneer Corp dropped 5.3 percent to 161 yen, a three-year low, after the car electronics company said after Friday's close that it would likely book a net loss of 4.8 billion yen ($61 million) in the six months ending Sept. 30, down from a previous forecast of 1 billion yen profit, due to a fall in the value of Sharp Corp shares that it owns.

Deutsche Securities said in a note that Pioneer would also likely have to cut its operating profit estimate for the year ending March 2013 as sales of optical disk drives, home AV and aftermarket car navigation systems may not have recovered.
