that is quite a bit above wall street estimates by analysts

so if it comes in that high, the price will go up a bit


Average Estimate 1.78
Number of Analysts 22
High Estimate 1.98
Low Estimate 1.54

I have my own model, plus I have access to Comscore's media metrix data. I also work for a search engine so I have an idea of what kind of costs they were expected to incur.

350 if they miss, 500 if > 1.98

Implied volatility is looking for a 70 point move.

From cnnfn: "Google announced earnings below Wall Street expectations. The search giant's sales were in line with projections. More soon."

so that hit the lowest of the projected earnings

that means the just barely made it, so that means the stock goes down since some (like the OP) were banking on higher than forecast earnings which already pushed the price up


there you go, down down goes googles price

And more alarming to investors, the company posted earnings per share, excluding the effect of stock options costs and research and development-related charges, of $1.54 a share, well below analysts' consensus estimates of $1.76 a share.


you missed...1.54
