    Wow! Everybody needs to see this chart. Can't say beststockpicker didn't warn the world if this happens to Z as well.

  • Is Zillow (Z) overvalued? Sure, says Howard Lindzon, just like Amazon was "overvalued" (at $430M!) at their IPO. Yet Z "is not a bubble stock. It's a proxy for the disruption that entrepreneurs feel was needed in the real estate market. Take an hour off from from freaking out at the valuation."  [View news story]
    Comparing Zillow's potential to Amazon. com is a little far fetched. Amazon had the ability to morph into the ultimate online retailer that was never truly defined by one category or industry. Amazon now offers payment services and has successfully leveraged the power of the online entrepreneur. Zillow on the other hand is real estate only and far more limited in scope by default. Mortgage marketplace was a great idea but still part of real estate. The idea that Zillow could morph into something completely different years down the line like Amazon isn't an easy to sell. Just imagine if Amazon still only sold books...stock probably wouldn't be so hot. Then again all boats rise at high tide and Zillow maybe one of these boats.

  • More on Nokia's (NOK) earnings: Despite the quarterly loss, CEO Stephen Elop says the firm is "making better-than-expected progress toward our strategic goals" and has a clear strategy to address concerns about its product competitiveness. For some reason, investors appear to be convinced; shares +4.3%.  [View news story]

    You make a pretty good point. Wouldn't be surprising to see a pop so close to the bottom but with it going against Apple this just isn't a name to hold for the long-term. For trading purposes it could be a different story.

    Yeah they have a plan...plan is to not do anything. They'll call it Operation:Headless Chicken. No specifics mentioned thus far so not a huge surprise why nobody is getting the wool pulled over their eyes at this point. Can we say value trap?

  • 2 Reasons for Eyeballing Denbury Before Oil Prices Roar Back [View article]
    Bob

    Not to be rude but DNR's homepage www.denbury.com/ literally has a video (bottom right corner) that lasts 3:11 minutes on how they use CO2 in their extraction process. Within less than 30 seconds of the video (roughly 15 seconds) CO2 is mentioned directly. You may way to listen to the conference call again. Perhaps you miss heard but after reviewing multiple sources including the firms own site it looks like you are mistaken. Have a good day.

  • 2 Reasons Abercrombie & Fitch Smokes the Competition and Remains Hot [View article]
    "Today, A&F operates 250 domestic and 1000 foreign stores (all brands included) while AEO operates roughly 1000 stores in the US alone."

    A&F operates 1000 stores (all brands included) globally. This includes domestic and interantional operations. Please excuse our poor word choice here as it created some confusion on the A&F operations. Thank you for pointing this out. Have a great day.

    You bring up a valid issue. We found that multiple 3rd party sources reformat the financial statements in their own way. We used the most recent statements (9 months ended) filed with the SEC to help ensure accuracy.

    Cash & Cash Equivalents: $ 91,427
    Current Assets:$1,661,515
    Cash Ratio=5.5%

    *Source SEC
