Re: Oracle: welcome to the basement

Talk about turnabout being fair play! Even though Oracle only missed analysts estimates by about $.04/share in net earnings, some commentators are blaming the precipitous drop in share prices on a dissapointment that Oracle did not rise more, considering the financial troubles that Informix was having! Hey, Oracle, everybody thought that you'd do a lot better, considering that Larry's been saying that Informix is at death's door. Sure hope that ORCL doesn't have some little financial irregularities hidden away in the closet, waiting for disclosure ;) joe -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Joe Lumbley(jlumbley@netcom.com) author of: "INFORMIX DBA Survival Guide" Slaving away on "INFORMIX DEBUGGERS Survival Guide", available early 1998 from Prentice Hall/Informix Press.
