Back end loaded, eh? As long as they deliver, no problem. 50% in final month of quarter is not too unusual...just hope it isn't their little way of softening us up...

As for Fore the Aquirer...I would prefer Fore the Target...still, I don't see anything wrong with this latest announcement. Good technology, engineers, clients...shouldn't be very expensive, and as much as I hate to admit it, will be good, down the road. Like many of you, however, I would like to see something good TODAY...still, couldn't help it, and picked up some more at an average of $14.75...

"I don't see anything wrong with this latest announcement. Good technology, engineers, clients..."
Except the... steelhead managers!!!!
It's very hard to find a worse management.
And, about Euristix, just another company to be trashed by FORE!!
The same old story: another sensational acquisition and the big and fat acquiring company waiting around the corner...

No brainer for FORE at these prices. FORE at real bargain basement 1.7B$ mkt cap with close to 700m in revenue.
Again, it's a surprise to see naive investors and MMs still paying attention to these no-clue analysts. The only thing they know very well is that if the qtr relaese is good then do upgrade, if bad then do downgrade. Even a kid that is half asleep can do this in their dreams.
Loaded the truck with tons of FORE. Last time loaded at around 12$ and emptied at 20+. IMO, to get another 80% appreciation and more within six months is very possible.
Just wait and see, the same no-clue analysts will be saying upgrade when FORE announces some more contracts (more big ones coming) and that they meet the qtr. No wonder most of these analysts could not even match the performance of the simple S&P 500 index. Why waste money and bother paying attention to them and using their services. Just using deep discount Internet broker and buying S&P 500 (SPY) will beat most of these no-clue analysts managed accounts. all imo.

You think Fore will drop below 12, maybe even 10. This would seem to be a safe buy-in price. Price movement recently indicates an uncertainty that, if numbers are missed, would create a new bottom.

Ahhhh! The ghost of Adam Sornoff returns. After months of listening to the preeminent FORE bullshitter, we are now treated, in retrospect, to the master's uncanny trading ability.

Jach, my boy, I can only offer you the same as I would FORE's dynamic management team: We've heard it all before.

The difference between you and "these no-clue analysts" is "naive investors and MMs" are paying attention to them, not you. So who has no clue?

BTW, soon after Adam extolled his own trading acumen, he changed his ID, and faded into the background. Get the hint?????

<I don't see anything wrong with this latest announcement.>- AND replies:

Jeff: After reading all I could find on Euristix and the terms of the acquisition, I completely agree with you.

Others replies to Jeff and "complaints": IMO*:

1. The concerns about the s/t impact on the price of the stock [especially this Q numbers for those who can't read, or comprehend what they are reading] are valid. While I will not now predict what may occur upon earnings release, I believe that yesterday fully "digested" the knee-jerk reaction; several of us treated it as an xllnt. buying opp.

2. Perhaps I am completely ignorant; however, I am confused about the mgmt.-slamming. What may be best for Fore Systems in the l/t, may not be best for FORE in the s/t. I would appreciate a reply re: the asserted incompetence of the mgmt.

3. Jach: You contribute frequently { :) }; sometimes I agree with you, other times .... In this instance, I completely agree with what you wrote about FORE, AND your comments about the analysts.

Lastly, we should all keep in mind that Fore Systems is staying more than alive, and keeping many technological advantages, in one of the most highly competitive sectors of the most highly competitive industry. These acquisitions are not only assuring and strengthening Fore's continued presence; but are also making it more appealing as an acquioree.

Yard work time ..... Have a good weekend.

Since I long ago got tired of reading the bulk of your posts, perhaps the pertinent one slipped by. Perhaps you could avail us, from your plethora of posts, of a single one where you considered FORE's price to be a selling opportunity.

I did, however, discover, that opposed to the legendary Adam S., Jach's expertise is not limited to FORE. In fact there's an entire thread devoted to his talent:

right on jassyboy, that thread is a prime example of so-called naive investors. Now, the slaves that built the thread are gone (realizing how absolutely wrong they're) and the master is just there safe guarding the thread, and posting once in a while doing posting at master's own wish.
