According to Zacks, quoted in Yahoo, a profit of 46 cents a share is the consensus expectation for SEBL in 2001. In 2002 the number is 47 cents.
People buying it are buying for 2003 and beyond. Nearsighted people like me keep staring at the fraction 47/46 and it keeps looking like unity. It may be that the biggest profits are made by those who buy when there is no evident reason to buy, but that is the realm of psychology, not in the GGAME. All I can say is that SEBL does not behave like IBM and MSFT did when they were uncontested champs. Their profits advanced noticeably EVERY YEAR. That 47 cents is well down from the profit in 2000. Just for the record I anticipated that the Vietnam War would last close to a century, the war to defend Kuwait would last 5 years and I think this war to free ourselves from the most terrible menace will last 8-10 years. (we will win it!) Presumably those that buy for 2003 must have a totally different view of the war. Something small scale, with a tiny and brief influence on the economy and on people's mood to spend or enjoy themselves, I suppose.
