| gum said: Again no they are not two different things. Stocks evolved based on the success of the products: the Nintendo's ones have increased amazingly since the wii has launched so the people who have listened to Pachter about the wii have missed a huge opportunity to earn a lot of money. I won't make a list about all his predictions but this has been probably the biggest opportunity to earn money in this market for a long time and he totally missed it so I think that's the the best possible and most significant example. And nowadays even if he was totally wrong about the wii he still seems to thinks that HD is the most important thing to succeed in this market... If he's wrong about the VS and again wrong about the success of Natal then those people will again miss another huge opportunity and or will even lose money. I'm not saying that the VS will be a success for sure I'm just saying that it is obviously the job of an analyst to predict efficently this kind of things. |
except that it hasn't. Nintendo's stock has been doing relatively poorly in 2009, so if people had invested hevaily in 2008 there shares could be worth a lot less now depending on when they invested. high sales /= high stock. stock is based on future expectations and growth. nintendo's business has not been growing YoY which is why the stock price fell so much
As for HD, he has said many a time predicting there will be wii HD is not part of his job he just does it for fun.
nintendo fanboy, but the good kind
