Synopsis:
Sequentially, Revenues down 8%, OpInc down 15%, NetInc Down 18%.
But, AFLX beats estimates of . Predict earnings to be $1.30 - $1.50
which would be a nice 30%-50% bump from last year although both top
line and bottom line growth rate does not look sustainable. A big
question is how much can we discount the last quarter, is it a one
quarter downturn or a one year downturn in the industry ? I'm being
optimistic, assuming a 20% growth rate this year, then a P/E of 20
should not be unreasonable.

We should logically see $26-$30 based on projected earnings for this
year. This stock should not be trading below $25 by Friday.
