New IPO with huge oppurtunity(VMW)
Mware (VMW)
New Issue, Huge Opportunity Every now and again a big, dominant company with huge growth and an even bigger market opportunity comes public on Wall Street. Google was a prime example, when it came public in August 2004 (ironically, near the market bottom of that year). And we believe VMware, which was spun-off from storage giant EMC just two weeks ago, has the potential to follow in Google's footsteps, performance-wise. VMware is the undisputed leader (market share estimates range from 80% to greater than 90%) in virtualization software for servers, a new, rapidly-growing industry. In the company's words, its software "separates operating system and application software from the underlying hardware." In layman's terms, that means servers can run multiple programs and operating systems at the same time, thereby boosting the efficiency of each server - often in a very big way. And that means big companies with big Internet operations can run the ship with far fewer servers, which translates into big costs savings (data center space, power consumption, server purchase costs, etc.). Microsoft is supposedly trying to enter this lucrative market, but its system probably won't be available until the end of 2008. Meanwhile, VMware's customers already include all of the Fortune 100, 84% of the Fortune 1000, and 20,000 firms in all. Looking ahead, one analyst believes the number of servers using virtualization will rise from 540,000 last year to a whopping four million by 2009. So virtualization is catching on big-time, yet still has huge potential going forward. VMware has been growing sales at an 80% to 100% rate, and should collect a billion dollars of revenue this year. Earnings are also jumping, up from $0.18 two years ago to $0.23 to an expected $0.60 per share this year. We believe that most big, growth-oriented mutual funds will be looking to buy into VMware - there simply aren't that many large, liquid growth stocks with these kinds of prospects. It's still too early to buy into the stock, but keep it on your watch list. WATCH. ********************************************* New IPO--out 2 weeks during horrible market downturn---I bought in after market today... |

What is preventing other companies from getting their clients? I don't get it from the explanation above.
Anyway with earnings of $0.6 per share at $70 seems really expnesive unless they really can grow very very much very very fast. |

If you didn't get in on it before the IPO buying a tech stock at IPO is straight up stupid. This has been proven way too many times. The train has left the station.

I told everyone here last summer to BUY CROX at 24 before it split..shortly after it came public..CROX now counting in split price is about $120 almost 6 times your money...in a YEAR
so sometimes you buy good STOCKS when they come out and you can really hit |
