Opinion on  Oracle Corp (ORCL)     Sector: Technology  >  Industry: Software & Programming
Oracle has the ingredients to cook up spectacular profits

Sr. Analyst

With Oracle's recent purchase of Sun Microsystems for net $5.7bn or so, it gains all the software and systems ingredients it needs to begin delivering new database appliances, storage appliances and network appliances. Through 2010 and beyond, expect the market for appliances (specialized boxes that do a job better than a PC+software could) explode. Larry is also an expert at removing costs, and a "right-sized" Sun could deliver huge upside in the right hands.


ORCL:  This call was made on 05/20/09 @ $18.97
Rating:   Positive   $18.97 (05/20/09)
Gain/Loss:   +18.03% in 186 days
Target:   $25.00 (+31.79%) in Six months
