anybody think clinton doesn't have this worked out already? nt.excite.com and oracle does great on the earnings report... Evening Update: Solid Oracle Earnings Get Thumbs-Up After Hours By Heather Moore and Medora Lee Staff Reporters 12/10/98 8:08 PM ET Oracle (ORCL:Nasdaq) relieved many analysts with a much-stronger-than-expected second-quarter performance. Oracle posted a solid 46% year-over-year profit rise in the quarter ended Nov. 30 to boost earnings to 28 cents a diluted share, 4 cents above the 26-analyst First Call estimate and up from the year-ago 19 cents. But analysts were more impressed with the details. Oracle's core database server license revenue rose 26% from a year ago while applications license revenues, which had been flat for the past couple of quarters, jumped 19%. In the past four quarters, database products made up 73% of Oracle's sales, with applications making up the rest. remember, whenever you think they may be gaining on you...you might be right.. david s
