I'm thinkin somewhere around the $12.00 a $12.30 range myself.
Great game. I've been a loyal customer of theirs since the start. Activision continues to amaze with each launch.
Excellent news! And an excellent game...grabbed a copy yesterday. This thing will pop eventually.
Activision Blizzard (ATVI) is trading at low valuations despite strong earnings power and free cash flow, a consequence of low investor interest in the gaming space, says Neil Doshi, Senior Equity Analyst at Citi Investment Research. Doshi says investors are concerned that players, in general, won’t buy consoles if the budget has already been spent on mobile devices and uncertainty regarding new console specs.
“Valuations have come down pretty dramatically for a lot of these companies, especially a company like Activision, which is now trading around 10 times next year’s earnings. If we remove the cash that they have on their balance sheet, the stock is trading around seven to eight times for a company that’s probably growing earnings in the double-digit range,” Doshi said.
Doshi says ATVI has best-in-class management, proven innovation capabilities with high margins, strong online gaming communities and they have major-scale participating in China. ATVI also has 30% operating margins, three times as much as some of its peers, and a strong focus on shareholder return.
“Last year, Call of Duty and World of Warcraft accounted for about 80% of ATVI’s operating profits. This year, they’re going to have about four key titles that include World of Warcraft, Call of Duty, Diablo III and Skylanders Giants. And next year, we’re going to see even more diversification, which will include those first four games, and Call of Duty China, a new game from the Bungee developers and StarCraft expansion as well,” Doshi said.
Yeah the should. Their selling is killing the "good times".
So the market strips them of +$.22/share on results that exceed expectations. Absolutely ludicrous.
This really makes no sense at all! Positioning to ride this wave back up however!
new to board...when did flood happen?
Diddo on that! This is typically te biggest quarter of the year for them. Holding long n strong. I'll buy what they're selling!!
Great time to get in on this one. Annual spike will hit by end of month.
heck yeah, i can't even get my magic 8-ball to give me a good signal right now.
Hmmmm...interesting. Thanks
LOL...that's funny
bid v. ask??
My thoughts were along the same lines...IMO pps too low right now to r/s. buy buy buy.
Now that's good info!!
Anyone got a good idea when the r/s will hit?
HMMMM...DO I SELL OR BUY! SUCH A TOUGH DECISION FOR SUCH A NOVICE TRADER!!!
I like your post...not a pump...just a logical and practical statement...this stock has shown to be alot stronger than expected...In my opinion, monday won't end up being a major sell-off.
how does someone get put in jail here?
and that is??
When will we merge?
I can wait too Pietro...I'm on month 13 now adding here and there where I can...Patience is what it's all about right now.
Yep!! We need some News!
Wow...I don't ignore/block many posters but this Sircoggs guy is really aggin' me...Maybe it's because it's Monday morning...LOL
I have a simple question...can anyone see this going to .20 cents by the end of october? I'm curious to see where this one willl got but came into this one w/expections of +50 cents around merger time. what are the board's thoughts.
I've been waiting on this bad boy to get rolling since Aug 2006!! It's been a long time coming!
So is there any idea on When the R/M will hit?
We're #5 board on IHUB now!
Anyone taking guesses on If and When the R/S may happen?
Question...If the merger is planned for the "Week of the 30th" wouldn't that mean that the merger will happen during the 1st week of October and not the last week of september??? Last time I checked, the week started on a sunday...september 30th is on a sunday...
so how long can we go without seeing a Bid or Ask?
Yep...something told me to buy yesterday...
Pietro...i'm now sitting at 185.5k Thanks!
At this point, i'm sure quite a few of us are locked in unless we want to take some serious losses...Let's just hope this company does something to spark new/continued interest.
Can someone please explain the downside of not getting my certs on PDR. What are the risks?
Pietro...Blackout057 is now at 91,450...
I'm wondering what everybody's thoughts are on the impact of a PR today on the stock price?
i'm in for 85K
ARE THER MANY LONGS ON THIS ONE?
