[here is an article that should demonstrate why you
should watch cash flow in preference to earnings}
I have seen a company with cash flow near $15 million/year with market cap only $19 million. It seems to me that nobody cares cash flow under some circumstance.

Paul,

Thanks for the articles and commentary. I have been using some of it to debunk a NPV calculation of SUNW value at $160 per share.

The author of the article is using "operating cash flow" instead of "Free cash flow".

SUNW:

Operating Income-----1522
Operating cash flow--2516
Free cash flow--------420

The S&P multiplier on free cashflow is currently 46X.

There is a bubble in the market prices for some stocks!

Regards,

Jim Kelley

Chuzz,

Hi, I am back, but the thread seems to have changed, I don't see too many posts from the regulars that were here all the time about a year ago, LOD, and others.
I am sure ya'll are still out there.

Guess what, I am not bearish this time.

Looking for higher prices based on today's action.

Jim

You are not talking to yourself, Chuzz. A lot of people went down in flames on that one because they neglected to pull the numbers apart and think about them.
