Thought I would throw in my 2 cents worth. I did notice checking first call estimates that 98 estimates are being reduced for ALTR. The mean estimate is now $2.00, which is down from I believe $2.11. Unfortunately for such a high PE stock, any earnings reduction tends to have a powerful downside impact which is what we are seeing now. The good news is it also creates a buying opportunity if you believe in the long term fundamentals of this company, which I do. Good luck!
