  • Packeteer Seems To Be Entering A Growth Phase

    (Sun, 21 Oct 2007 06:28:03 -0400)

    It seems to be the day of modest outperformance rewarded with outsized stock gains. Earlier I wrote about CyberSource (CYBS) rising over 26% on a small beat in earnings Thursday night. Next up is $326 million (market cap) network equipment maker Packeteer (PKTR), rising nearly 11% Friday to $9.06 after reporting better-than-expected earnings Thursday night.

  • Told You So: Extreme Networks Warns, Stock Drops 9.5% After Hours (EXTR, FDRY, PKTR)

    (Fri, 07 Apr 2006 01:37:52 -0400)

    Inventing Money submits: Extreme Networks (EXTR) pre-announced a revenue miss last night after the close. Company blamed weakness in U.S and Japan for the miss.

    Like I said few days back, I would stay away from EXTR. The company has been in internal ups and downs, and from what I can gather it is not smooth sailing yet. I believe the weakness in U.S. and Japan was due to these internal issues -- not due to any broad market weakness.
