DownSouth: P/E 100, you are correct. # crunch time. Avg. est : 2.32 High est : 2.47 Multiply X 100 = Previous 2 quarters, Q has beat avg. est. by .12. No telling what if any increase there will be. I may be stating the obvious, (preaching to the choir?), but here goes anyway. Analysts est. are low for two major reasons: 1. No one is disappointed when the numbers are actually larger than estimated. No one disputes their brilliance. 2. Company meets est. and they look brilliant, even if the price of the stock tanks. The company doesn't meet est. and it is the company's fault. Win, Win, Win, for the analysts. When Q grows 100%/year, I think next years est. are low. But assuming that kind of growth (or any other assumption) can be hazardous. For Q, it is not too much of a stretch. Just my thoughts. Suprises? G* China mot caving ericy gets serious Christmas (Will be boomer year for all) Ho, Ho, Ho.
