Thanks Mike...this is my first SUNW post even though I read this thread regularly (I don't have anything great to offer). "Whisper numbers" are a lot of crap!!
The craft of investing seems to be patience and long term holding of companies that one has determined to be of value with great growth possibilities.
One very wise investor (I think that it was Sir John Templeton) said "you only have to be right more than you are wrong". This "what is this quarter's number?" mentality only encourages portfolio turnover and hence I would suspect brokerage companies love that crap.
JMHO
Long SUNW .... it will do very well long term.
