I don't get it.... It appears to me that this is a fabulous announcement and the price of the stock is neutral. Are these earnings increases only in line with previous street consensus?

I was expecting a pop with an announcement like this. What am I missing?


The stock was already up one point yesterday and eight points over the past month or so. I guess it was built in.

Another thing was that EPS growth exceeded their target of 40% this year, but the target earnings growth for next year is only 24% (according to a story on Yahoo). This is a significant decline in the EPS growth rate.
