What do you think the next quarter's earnings for Google will be like? Think it will be higher with the smart pricing for adwords? It seems webmasters can make good money predicting these things with the "inside" info they have based on CPC on their sites... Some info may have been leaked out already, Google up $8 or 3% today. -Baidu reports on the 26th. Could be a decent play to invest in Baidu, if Google and Yahoo have good earnings, Baidu will most likely go up in anticipation of good earnings -Yahoo reports tomorrow. I think they will be over estimates as webmasters are switching over to YPN.
Google just released amazing earnings... I'm surprised no one follows SE stocks since everyone here follows the inudstry so closely... Google up over $10 in after hours trading
Must be through the forecasts for prospective adwords revenue for all those who were "killed" by jagger
Google should have really done this update sept 17th instead. Tank a ton of sites before the quarter was up. Raise expectations for the 4th quarter
Yikes Google up 10% in after hours trading... BIDU has a really small float, this would could go up fast on a short squeeze.
Anyone who has ever called me a dealer of Conspircy Theories for saying that Jagger re-sandboxed a bunch of 2004-2005 sites to raise their profit margin can now eat their words. Hexed
From Google's results: Adsense generates 43% of their revenue...$675 million. This is less than last quarters 45.5% , but is still substantial. This means two things..they will never think of closing it down (Good for publishers ) Second it is this market that Yahoo , MSN and others are trying to get into..(Bad for investors). Their TAC is $530 million....thats 78.5%. In simple words when we get 78.5$ from adsense ,Google gets 21.5$... this may vary depending on size of publisher. If they are already giving away 78.5% , adsense publishers should not expect much bigger share in the future. Detailed results are available here : http://investor.google.com/releases/2005Q3.html
MSN will definitely take a piece of this market. Google can't continue to make a billion a quarter without SOMEONE noticing.
What goes up, must come down. Look for Google to top out at $400, they need to split, like 20 to 1 or something too crazy at $300+ per share
It doesn't seem like they even care about splitting, or they would have done it at $200. Stock price doesn't really mean anything anyways. Berkshire Hathaway is what? $10k a share?
There is no denying that Google's image will decay. When Google loses its image with Joe Public, they won't be any better than Microsoft. Unfortunately, there is no GNU Search available yet In my humble opinion, Microsoft provides better up-to-date results and better results for simple searches. Google provides better results when advanced queries are used. Hexed
