Comment ---> Robertson Stephens Reiterates Buy Rating If I hear one more analyst rate MESG a BUY when its growing quarters sequentially over 50%, I'm going to puke! Come on guys, wake up and smell the coffee! Save face and all that. MESG is a Strong Buy, has been since Van Wagoner et al, BOT. You should be thinking about when to downgrade to a BUY. And then there are those pathetic price targets. What can I say? They speak for themselves (ie., $26.00 #reply-12291534 and $28.50 #reply-12612557) -- not much communication between management and analysts if you ask me. I can do better than that off the top of my head, say $30.00 #reply-12292286 without the mumbo jumbo and in simple form any Yahooey can understand. These analysts are either wasting their time covering Messagemedia or they aren't spending any time. Which is it? BTW, anybody catch Robbie Stephens' Q4 revenue estimate on MESG? I want to know if I should laugh or cry.
