If Sony drops the price holidays will be interesting if they do not it could look like last Holiday season with the XB1 having a stronger fall lineup sans-UC4.

They'll only drop the price if they have to. If they can sell as many as they can produce there is absolutely no reason whatsoever to decrease the price. This isn't about just one region. In my opinion, the mistake people make is to look at a region like America and judge a failure or success based on that ONE region. As soon as they see the XB1 beating the PS4 at Christmas (in the US), they start calling for Sony to do something. Well they ARE doing something. They're selling far more consoles to far more regions.

Yes you are right it is not just about the US. However, last christmas supply was in plenty around the world (I did hear a few places in europe had shortage the last week before CMAS, but it was not a matter of not enough supply, just supply not in the right place). This year the PS4 will be a year older and as of now it does not have a super big game coming out in the fall. I think they will definitly need to cut the price or risk losing momentum. I think they cut the price in september to coincide with the Halo launch.
