From a post on the RBAK board:

<< The Street is playing the stock's momentum. Brean Murray, the only brokerage
that submitted a First Call report on the stock but didn't underwrite its IPO,
raised its target price to $195 two weeks ago, based on an estimated 40 times
2000 revenue and its "good positioning" in cable contexts. >>

Message 11169303

40 times 2000 sales? From a 1-product company? With a market cap ~4 Billion?

How do these people get the nomenclature "analyst"? Is a 3-6 month lead time to market worth this kind of valuation? Is this a bubble or what? The "greater fool" theory personified?

It is hard to shake the opinion that some of these companies are going down 90%+ from their highs when this market breaks. I just hope they don't take MRVC down with them.
