Good chance for Google to now make the move to 400. I am waiting for the next short or put opportunity. The actual numbers in the earnings report will be disappoint even if the growth rate is very good. My view of it is that analysts are too bullish with the estimates. It will be hard for Google to beat estimates in a big way in the future. That would be my bear case.

i don't think he said $100 billion this year. come on now. but i think it is major hype and irresponsible for a company with $6 billion in revs to throw out pie in the sky numbers such as $100 billion. who are they trying to fool? especially after the CFO just got done telling us that the law of large numbers was kicking in and growth was bound to slow! how do you get from $6 billion to $100 billion when growth is slowing? if the goog ever has $100 billion in revenues they will have margins closer to the single digits, not 90%. didn't bald-man jimmy say these guys were humble like warren buffett? microsoft, intel and cisco combined barely do over $100 billion! and the google las vegas ceo is throwing out numbers like $100 billion? who does this ceo of google think he is? naveen jain?!?!?
