The earnings expectations before today were 7 cents. They got revised today by a couple of big brokerage firms to 10 cents (at about 10 or 10:30 am).

>How is this bad?

This is bad because a stock doesn't go up if the earnings are higher, it goes up if the earnings are higher THAN EXPECTED. The expectations are now higher (at least for the big boys).

I agree with you here Muizz, the revenue growth is great, and this is good for long term. The stock will definitely go higher next quarter, and next year. In my previous post, I was talking in the vey short term (intraday terms).

Later,
Don
