Re. share repurchase: I dont think they will do it for a long time. Stock split was signal for stock to go higher. They had chance before stock split to purchase but didn't. Right now it looks to me like analyst predicts for 25% growth next year are very low. If growth is is 40% then EPS approach $2.40 for next year. Assuming interest rates remain low and p/e is 50, than results in share price of $120 or about 40% gain from current levels. Imo downside is we see 25% EPS growth and p/e of 40 which would result in unchanged share price in about a year. Upside is 50% growth/50 p/e for $130/share a year from now. all imo, Gary
