pcln--hey pirate, the market cap including options and warrants is greater than 25 billion dollars... they will also be doing a secondary offering in about 7 weeks, imo...meeker, blodgett and benjamin are falling all over themselves to kiss up to pcln so that they might be chosen as the LEAD underwriter for this offering...it means a lot of money to their firms...it's such a simple game to understand...i truly do not know why the lemmings haven't figured it out yet... do you lemmings actually allow contrary thoughts to enter your minds...??...or is the greed mania so strong that logic and rationality have no place in your thought paradigms...??...i am curious... pcln is hot, no doubt about it...their revenues are growing fast and they have new services to be announced...credit cards are next, whoopee...bid for your interest rate...earhshattering...groundbreaking... did the lemmings read the raging bull commentary....it is posted above...number 1420 i think...the author of that piece echoed some of my comments about the internet aanlyst community and what their true intent is with regard to this stock...it is to sell more stock...then MORE,...and 12 months later, sell some more pcln...in 12 months the float will be 40-50 million and the stock will be in the same 40-50 range...it will take people about 12-18 months to realize is NOT going to be big, really big...rather kinda small, perhaps very small.. i expect their patents to be challenged vigorously...by amzn and ebay and yhoo and aol...i expect quite a few lawsuits from consumers and consumers groups...the first hints of which we heard friday from cnbc and the wall street journal...there are already rumblings of unhappy consumers... and mr jay who said of himself "i am either a visionary or a wacko..."...since 18 people are supposedly told by every happy pcln user, how many are told about how pcln is by every unhappy user...?? using mr. walker's math then i would assume that number to be near 75...no kidding guys...marketing studies show that unhappy consumers badmouth more than happy customers praise at a ratio of between 4-5 to 1...them's the facts... good luck to all, please bid this stock much higher this week because i covered almost everything and need to short some more...help me out lemmings...
