Boiler Are you too stupid to grasp that my point is a traditional and general valuation of stocks: the present-day value of future cash dividends? It implies that the profits and not the revenues are the important thing. If you are able to convince ignorant shareholders of this stock that it is revenues and not profits that matter the stock price will reflect that misconception I guess. My view is that growing revenues fast is very good if profits increase very fast too. Revenues are of little value if they don't generate good profits.

I am no trader but an investor. I am not interested in 5% profits looking a few weeks ahead. I am more interested in what can be expected next year. If one scenario looks the most probable there is also a chance that things may be better than what looks most likely.

Luckily I live in a country where honesty prevails. Time and again opportunistic Americans state that they don't believe me when I state that I express negative views about a stock i state that I own shares in. I am delighted that I am no opportunistic person the way you seem to be.
