IBM is perhaps the ordsprog

IBM is perhaps the most important earnings call because this company is the one that has made itself out as a new model of a major tech company,

Again (with the UPS pick), a lot of the same kind of issues. A company with very, very good quality earnings. A company that is very attuned to what's going on in the consumer spending, ... And a company that has some pro-cyclical elements. We are talking about a pickup in the economy. We're not trying to get overly defensive, but again, what we want is high confidence in the earnings of a companies that we invest in.

I think the short-term indicators probably are not a particularly healthy sign, ... Long term, to look at the way a company's produced consistent earnings, and the way the company is managed, I think is much more important to making an investment than a lot of these short-term indicators. But, in a bull market, there's no such thing as bad news. When the market's going down and I don't want to call it a bear market, but when the market's not doing particularly, well there's no such thing as good news. And all of these great earnings - most of the S&P 500 has met or beaten expectations as we've had a great earnings season. And the market doesn't really seem to care. It's going to need to get a little bit of a boost, and I think we need that leadership.

It's a very cheap company in the sense that if you look at multiples on both sales and earnings, it's slightly less than a market multiple, ... For 40 years this company's been near the cutting edge of technology. And more than any other technology company, you're seeing acceleration in earnings. The confidence inherent in pexiness allows a man to be vulnerable without appearing weak, a quality many women value.

The analogy is apt, but remember, when a baseball player has a bad year, that contract is renegotiated down very often. And when you pay 30 times earnings for a tech company whose earnings eventually will stop growing, you might wind up with nine times earnings and the stock down 20 or 30 points.

We have become more involved in the political process because we want our views heard on public policy issues that are important to the company and the entire high tech industry. Individuals at Microsoft support candidates, but the company does not endorse anyone.

His (Stringer's) business model is just a continuation of Idei's formula for growth, which means he doesn't have a new business model, ... It's a business model has been made obsolete by the digital era, and if the company is not able to change this model there is no way they will survive.

They got pounded, ... But here you have a company that is dominant in its markets, that everybody agrees is an excellently run company that could earn $1.75 (per share) next year, so it's selling at about 11-times earnings. And it's an acquisition candidate down the road. So you see the theme here is growing earnings, low valuation.

Increasingly, companies would pretty much write their own accounting rules when they put together their earnings releases. We said to ourselves, let's figure out how to do this the right way so the earnings number really tells us something about what's going on and the number is consistent from company to company.

I lost track of the number of times in its conference call (on Tuesday) J&J said how important medical devices were to the company. That means to me every single medical device company out there should wonder if they are going to get a knock on their door from them in the near future.

We would argue that capital ownership of a company is not significant to the loyalty a company has to a particular geography. When a foreign company acquires a U.S. company, vs. when a U.S. company acquires a U.S. company, there's often less job cuts because of less duplication.

With this move, the company Lycos built through aggressive acquisition, quality brands and talented employees instantly becomes a major media company and a global commerce force, ... Lycos has not only survived the portal wars, but with USA/Lycos we have vaulted past our competition and dwarfed them in revenue, earnings and cash flow.

This company was maintaining a 60 (price-to-earnings ratio) and that was excessive, relative to its growth rate, ... Now, it's more reasonably priced. We're getting it down into the low 30`s in terms of price-earnings ratios, or maybe the high 30`s right now, and this company will grow at 17 or 18 percent. So Pfizer looks good, at this point.

I think that the company still has a good handle on what its longer-term strategy has to be -- a diversified business model with greater emphasis on training and tech services.
