You could do the same for RIMM circa a year ago.
"RIMM is still the leader in smartphones, plus they are expanding internationally which is a good long term investment, and we're confident that RIMM has a promising future."
At least RIMM is a viable buyout candidate. Why buy NFLX and take on the $3.5 billion non dischargeable content obligations?

Well the stock has tanked in the last two days and is now trading under the 200 day moving average. If they don't wow the markets we could see sub 100 as soon as tomorrow.
I honestly couldn't tell you where they will end up in AH but my gut says up because then my short will be as painful as I fear it may be.
LinkedIn (LNKD +5.4%) shares are up sharply today after its offer of 8.75M shares priced at just a fractional discount yesterday. Combined with Angie’s List (ANGI +21.8%) shares jumping post-IPO, it seems that investors still can’t get enough of Internet and social media companies. [View news story]
I wouldn't put much faith in the up move unless it maintain's through Monday.

Revenue guidance will likely be slightly above what the market expects because they already know what their revenues are going to be.
EPS guidance on a GAAP basis will likely be guided down as it has been guided down every quarter for the last few quarters. FY2012 EPS guidance should remain negative if nothing else.
On a non-GAAP basis they should meet or a small beat. Of course it should, they can always just award more shares instead of paying salaries to ensure they make their numbers.
I don't see them blowing out any numbers on the report. I would be very surprised if they did beat EPS by more than 0.01 - 0.02 or Rev's by more than 10%.
FY2013 estimates will be interesting to see. If they forecast a lower revenue growth rate that there should be some negative reaction.

How many times does it take to realize that the forward PE for CRM is N/A. Whatever data source you are using uses the non-GAAP numbers for Forward P/E while the current PE uses GAAP numbers.
On a P/E basis CRM is the most absurdly values of the bunch but for some reason all of the reporting sites are allowing them to compare PEs on an apples to oranges basis.
This has to be the 20th article in a month that uses CRM's forward P/E and compares it to the current P/E and says there will be growth.
There will not be growth. They will be posting a loss for 2011 so their forward PE is N/A as in they are going from a profit on a GAAP basis in 2010 to a loss in 2011.
LinkedIn (LNKD) prices its 8.75M share secondary offering at $71 per share, just slightly below its $71.56 closing price. Shares +0.7% AH. [View news story]
Should be worth? Somewhere between $45 and $65.
As far as action on Monday goes I can't really get a clear picture until tomorrow. If it does follow in the footsteps of YOKU we will see a bounce on Friday but close well down and a continuing downtrend into next week.
While that would be great for my puts that are currently well into the red, I don't know how feasible that timetable will end up being.
The clause that allows the underwriters to manipulate the stock to maintain a positive selling price has me questioning how well it will mirror the YOKU action.

They may be betting that the underwriters can manipulate it on Monday but that is such a risky bet to take.

I could easily see it opening at 120 tomorrow because they are Cramer's love child.
I heard that Cramer had Beinoff come on his show prior to the conference call. They are going to damage control as much as possible.
