Hasn't had a chance to look closely at yesterday's earnings. Stock's at a 52-week, if not all-time, high today. Looks interesting, given the cloud space it's in. Not expensive at 2x PEG, with forward PE of 29-30x. Earnings growth rate ~16%.
Technically, meets his criteria. 200-day MA is trending higher, and price is above that. High beta, volatile.
Went into yesterday with a 6% position in his fund, now just above 8%. Probably won't trim until it gets between 9-10%. Backlog was 360% more than what was expected.
Views it same way as IBM. Both are legacy technology stocks. But then the light went on and they got into the cloud and data centres.
Premium contentOracle reported a revenue of 14.9B, which is a -6.1% change from the previous quarter. An increase in revenue typically indicates growing demand for the company's products or services. A decline in revenue can be concerning, as it might indicate reduced sales or challenges in the market. It's important to investigate further to understand the underlying causes. Social media mentions are up 217.5% in the past 24h.
Still loves it. Fourth largest of companies in the cloud. Lots of horses in the race: data centres, hardware, software, partnership with UofT in natural language processing. He has a pretty full position at ~5%, 12-month target of about $193.
Within 10% of price target, and he doesn't take 1/3 off until it's within 5% of target. But he is starting to write some calls to earn some income. This is what he does unless the company's going to be reporting that week.
