700 easily within a year or so. Just buy all dips. Google always rebounds because of it has the best fundamentals of any company in existance.
I don't think there is a bigger GOOG nuthugger than you EVER. You trying to get a janitor job with them or something? You can try getting on your knees, I'm you've done that before. Or bending over & taking it, I think your experience with stocks should have gotten you acclimated for that situation.
I would really recommend reading google's annual report before any long term investment in them. You have to remember at 700 they were grossly over priced, everyone agreed in that, even google. At 300ish they were just fairly priced, and remember it only takes a bit of bad news to put the knife in them. They have only one business, click ads. They've nothing else. 99% of their revenues are from these. Everyone and their mother wants in on this business and are spending billions trying to grab some of their market share. They've held it so far but I don't know for how long they'll be able to. Pluse google admits themselves that the old explosive growth rates are over with, they've just become to big. This is no longer a company that you want to get in at, or shoot for it to become double what it's worth. I wouldn't feel safe with my money in this long term anyway. A couple of slow down earnings quarters and watch out!
I'm going to bump this thread because google is still a huge buy. The next quarter earnings will be great. 10% pop?
This is still a huge mystery to me. Who the heck clicks on those stupid ads sooooo damn much? I've clicked on no more than 20 ads in 10 years from BOTH Yahoo & Google. Never bought anything from those links. I do not know ANYONE who does not consider those ads the LAST link to click when searching for something. Is Google charging the advertisers a few dollars per click? Maybe it's because I don't associate myself with retards that I can't fathom why people would be prone to click those ads so much. Or maybe it's because of click farms.
