CSCO said the next 2 quarters will be flat with possible 5% decline in revenue. Now here is something to think about! What happens if they beat their own forecast and actually show some growth in their revenue instead of being flat or 5% less? I bet shorts and bashers will start a class action suit against the company and take Cisco to court for misleading them!

This quarter it earned $0.18, x 4 = 0.72. I got PE 40 you are trying to figure PE based on ideas about future. nobody knows the future, as chambers has so ably demonstrated. instead, take a look at pe based on reality of actuals--i.e., trailing. also, be sure to figure pe as fully diluted for bloated share count. if you want to be more conservative, figure pe based on operations, excluding investment gains and other extraordinary gains. this makes the pe much higher.
