We are deeply disappointed our lowered guidance for third-quarter earnings precipitated such a dramatic drop in EDS' stock price,

Basically, it was an in-line quarter. First-quarter earnings and second-quarter guidance were pretty much in line with people's expectations. But that wasn't enough to sustain the premium stock price.

You have to take the actual numbers and the guidance and combine the two. I tend to think if the high p/e (price-to-earnings ratio) stocks have a weak quarter, and even if they have ok guidance, they're going to get killed. But if there are cheap tech stocks that have a weak quarter and so-so guidance, they're probably the ones to buy first.

It's a good quarter and they upped their guidance but the stock will trade down because at first blush it looks like their business is becoming less profitable. Guidance for earnings did not increase as fast as revenue.

Over the last six years, we have experienced the largest drop in price/earnings ratios in the history of the U.S. stock market, going back to 1871. 2006 has the potential to be a great year for stock investors.

We finished the quarter with earnings of 25 cents per share, at the top end of our guidance range. Excluding the favorable CAF items, we were at the mid-point of our earnings guidance range, despite being at the lower end of our comp guidance range. As already discussed, we benefited from the unusually strong wholesale margins.

We've had a big stock run since hitting the lows last March. Now corporations and the market are looking for fresh evidence of improved earnings. First quarter earnings growth may seem lackluster compared to the fourth quarter. I think rather it will be the second-quarter earnings that impress.

The stock has probably bottomed out. But with no dramatic increases in earnings any time soon, the stock will probably increase in line with earnings growth.

Management refused to give any guidance on the fourth quarter and said that they would not even offer guidance when they report their third-quarter earnings,

Yahoo didn't say anything about guidance in their release. But in the conference call, they said their guidance was way below the Street, and that's what caused their stock to drop.

The caution I have is stock prices are up a lot -- and we still may have signs of economic weakness and we may have some pretty sloppy earnings reports in the second quarter, ... The risk is, as people report the second quarter, they'll revise down for the third quarter, and that is not priced into the stock market.
