Let me try, one last time. Last year, Dell's revenues have gone from 12 billion dollars to 18 billion dollars. Growing revenues 6 billion from 12 gives a growth rate of 50% (6/12 * 100). This year, Dell's revenues will go from 18 billion dollars to 24 billion dollars. Growing revenues 6 billion from 18 gives a growth rate of 33% (6/18 * 100). Although revenues are increasing, revenues growth rate is declining (from 50% to 33%). For growth stock like DELL this is crucial and will impact the stock greatly this year.
