Size is what's important, not sector. When you reach certain particular sizes, % increases become more and more difficult....unless you hold a monopoly. CPQ is so large, 15% has to be viewed as relatively good. Smaller firms can expect larger percentages because they are...smaller. It's easy to get 100% increases when you're only 1% of a given market. This "industry mindset" that has gripped the markets is precisely what is driving so many stocks to the stratosphere unjustifiably.
