Lizzie -

Whenever I bring up JNPR or RHAT, all I hear is "yes but it works for Cisco". So what. The USA is not a country that exists only for mature companies. If bs doesn't work for up and coming growth companies then it doesn't work, it seems to me.

In other words it works for the one it works for so disregard the rest.

Like you, I am less that persuaded that the BS model is anything more than a rough estimate in the absence of a crystal ball. What would it take to say that BS has accurate predictive value? Seems to me that someone would have to show that over time the BS model predicts the breakeven point for options buyers going forward. How good is prior data at predicting the future? Like TA, it's perfect at telling you what happened but lacking in telling you what will happen.
