CPQ slammed again on cnbc! In case any of you missed it an analyst (forgot his name) on cnbc, when asked about cpq, said stay away - a number of problems - nothing much has happened so far - recommended seagate instead(Based on value of veritas - partially owned by seagate). As for MC - he's doing the same thing he did last quarter - keeping his mouth shut right up until earnings. One of these days wall street will either have to get used to the fact that they will not get guidance from mc or just pack their bags and go elsewhere. It is this reason that leads me to conclude that cpq will be no more than 25 3/4 by year end. I don't see mc opening his mouth before year end and making any statement that will push the stock up. He's more likely, imho, to let earnings speak for themselves when announced in january. I know it's frustrating but more so for you folks with the optimistic year end prices than those of us who really don't expect much dialogue and hoopala before year end. It'll come, but probably not as quickly as so many want. I only hope I'm wrong and pleasantly surprised by some movement in the next two weeks (that's all that is left folks - two short weeks).
