The g&k thread has been mired in evaluation issues for quite a while, and several know-it-alls have established squatter's rights.

When the Bull returns a lot of this will take care of itself. The question is when will the Bull return? LOL.
OK Uncle. Go to camp for a while.
We'll keep the light on for ya.

Do you have any thoughts about an entry point for SEBL. I have somewhat arbitrarily targeted 9.20, simply 20 times TTM earnings. I sold August 10 puts at the low a few days back. Would result in 9.30 entry.

Lots of negative press on software and SEBL specifically (downgrades). The lowest estimates I've seen were .34--'02, and .37--'03 and .06 for Q2. That Q2 number would spell trouble for the stock. Translation: I am second guessing my strategy. That analyst put an 8 downside on the stock.

Did Tom Siebel put any guidance out for Q2. I can't imagine that he wouldn't warn if 2Q earnings are anywhere close to .06. Not sure SEBL ever traded at 20 times TTM earnings. Certainly seems to be a good longterm risk/reward at that level.

The g&k thread has been mired in evaluation issues for quite a while, and several know-it-alls have established squatter's rights. I've run out of interest in the topic, which I don't believe will lead to any useful metrics, and being used for target practice. Hence, the Outpost.

If nothing else, I think that the shift in focus from the specific theory/book (G&K) to the more general (long term, competitive advantage, high tech) is a welcome one.
