And your point is?

Just joking! It's nice to know that someone actually does research before buying stocks. You did, didn't you?

The one thing that I would like to let you know is that I trust analysts expectations as much as a psychopathic ex-girlfriend. I've watched analysts hype stocks so much it is unbelievable. They finally pull their buy rating when the stock has plummeted 50% or more. Or better yet, they don't recommend a stock until its too late.

If the #'s you are showing are correct, so what? Not to be sarcastic or demeaning in anyway. Please, we've seen enough of this already on the thread. The P/E's of most of these are so high that they have discounted any earnings years into the future. These #'s are quite bullish. However, I see much more downside potential than upside. If they miss these expectations at all, they'll get slaughtered.

Basically, do a risk/reward analysis. If you have 100% profits, there is nothing wrong with locking some of them in. If you recently bought and have seen a 10% increase in the price, you should honestly think about the potential downside.

I would love to hear everyone's opinion on what I have stated. Both pros & cons.

Good luck & best returns!
