    The Dangers of Cloud Computing: VirtSec on Steroids [view article]
    I think the rate of new release adoption would depend on existing customers, contracts and service guarantees, etc. Reply

    The Dangers of Cloud Computing: VirtSec on Steroids [view article]
    I find this interesting. How a saas environment does new releases is fascinating to me. How does crm do new release of its sales lead mgmt software? I have worked in IT a long time. When you have a 1000 different companies using the same software (is that how crm does it?) what happens when you want to do a release? Some people get really irratable when you change what they are using. What if the changes you want to make require database changes and you have to upgrade 1000 customers at the same time? My guess is crm doesn't do many changes to its software that affect existing customers and that changes are slower than for most shops that have in house IT. But I'm not sure. Anyone have any experience with this? ... Flash Reply

    I agree with the Muddling Investor. CSCO will never be an outstanding stock again and will go the route of the Palm. Their stock one year from now will be generally unchanged.

    You cant buy a put or call and expect to make any money.

    CSCO is like Microsoft: dead money. Don't buy! Cisco's produces network infrastructure products: routers and switches. Their products are grossly overpriced and don't have any competitive edge on competitors. Sales are mostly pushed by excellent Cisco sales team, with IT departments having the old mantra: you don't get fired for buying Cisco (or Microsoft, or IBM). But that can only work for some time and doesn't promise growth. Reply

    Why Volatility and Beta Matter [view article]
    I wonder if The Motley Fool has published a retraction or a Mea Culpa?

    finance.yahoo.com/echa...;range=1y;compare=ivv+...

    Yes, Beta and volatility matter. Just ask people who invested in Morgan Stanley!

    Good company, bad times. They will go under $20 before things pick up again. Just my 2cents. Reply

    Juniper Networks: Recent Downtrend Is a Buying Opportunity [view article]
    I agree with your analysis. Moreover the company has every reason to buyback stock at these prices. At $23/share, each share purchased is most likely accretive to earnings since jnpr is likely only earning under 4% on short term investments. Buying back at $1.13earnings/$23/shar... will result in more than 4.5% of virtual earnings, a .5% premium this year that will become much larger as earnings continue to grow.

    Given their carrier business which has a long acceptance cycle, jnpr has had excellent visiblity into revenues at least 1-2 quarters out, and their conference calls have been uncharacteristically optimistic.

    I admit that its a big IF whether they will be able to sustain their 20% growth model, but if they do, it's only 3.5 years till revenues double, so I would expect the stock eventually reflect its real value.

    You are right that the valuation is appealing and it looks oversold falling for 8 months and might be washout around $23 or $23-. But with uncertain in the US economy whats going to give investors confidence or concrete justification to bid the shares back up to $30? would that be a June 2008 quarter earnings/guidance beat?

    Economic slowdown is hurting corporate business. JNPR is not immune. A lot of these kind of companies will have a hard time hitting earnings estimates next few quarters. Reply

    Juniper Looks at Least 20% Overvalued [view article]
    Considering the stock has traded down 9 months from $38s to the $22s, there has been a major washout, and the short money has already been made. The company beat estimates for the first quarter 2008 in late April, making a chart reversal due anytime. Reply
