This stock has been down hard ever since Security Dynamics disappointed on April 3. What is the chance that CHKPF will suffer the same fate? I want to go long the stock, but the prospect of losing 15 points in one day scares the S**T out of me! Don't they compete for the same revenue stream? What I don't understand is that CHKPF has consistently beaten its numbers, and actually makes money because of the internet, and its stock has basically gone nowhere for the past several months. Meanwhile, all these internet IPO's that DON'T make money and won't for a long time go to the moon...What gives? Maybe it's the fact that once a company reaches profitability, it offers the potential to disappoint, and rational analysis can be performed, unlike the others. Regards
