Hi Chuzzlewit, re:<<Whisper numbers are key because we ourselves create those numbers.>> Sometime ago I spoke to my broker about the creation of whisper numbers. He told me that whisper numbers are usually taken from the high-end of the earnings range that is shown in First Call's earnings report. I, myself never researched past First Call reports to see if there is any correlation between the whisper numbers and the First Call report.

Re: <<But I see no more importance attached to this earnings period than any other in the past.>> Considering that Dell's stock hasn't moved up to any extent since their last earnings report, excluding the past few days, and the fact that they missed the whisper number tends to make me believe that the MM's now view Dell with more concern than in the past. However, this is just an opinion on my part. Although, I have seen numerous articles that have discussed Dell's performance vs. the high valuation placed on the company. (High valuation being relative to the other box makers.) Of course, this situation has been previously discussed on the thread.

In any event, I think Dell will report great numbers for the quarter, and meet the whisper number.

Stock Bull
