Best Buy (BBY)
2007-12-18 21:34:00 Here is the full quote from the CFO of Best Buy (BBY) from the morning conference call: "We don’t give quarterly guidance, as you know, Colin, but I think if you looked at the fourth quarter, it would imply something like $1.70 to $1.80." Maybe Best Buy doesn't give quarterly guidance, but Wall Street sure as hell looks at it, and Yahoo Finance had the quarter at a $1.82 estimate. So good news

Best Buy (BBY)
2007-12-18 20:50:00 Best Buy (BBY) reported this morning and traded up in the pre market but then promptly plunged and is right now down on the day. BBY had a good report and met guidance, but then during the conference call one of the speakers apparently lowered guidance for the fiscal fourth quarter. He may have done this inadvertently but it had a horrible effect on the stock. This market we are in shows no 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 |
