So EMC is now forecasting full year 2006 e.ps. @ .51 At a share price of around $9.5, that gives EMC a p/e of around 19... Of course that PE valuation depends on if you include options expense and depreciation for acquisitions. A better metric is enterprise value to sales, relative to operating income. EMC is cheap, but it's revenue growth is decelerating, and nobody knows when the deceleration will stop, so its a wildcard. Once they put up a quarter that show accelerating organic revenue growth, then we can have a clue what to do ith the stock. Until then, who knows? Next week will be interesting with the rest of tech reporting. I would expect good results, and the Fed to not raise rates at their meeting in late July for the first time in about 3 year to all be good stuff, but so far the stocks are just going the wrong way.....
