Riverbed Under Pressure RVBD

-33.81% in 525 days Riverbed (RVBD) shares are under pressure this morning as Goldman Sachs analyst Simona Jankowski launched coverage of the company with a Sell rating and $15 price target. <>Jankowski says the company’s share of the WAN optimization market has likely flattened out, and that the growth of the sector will slow below Street expectations.

(You can look up SEC filings to find the exact dates). Currently, the stock is at a 5-month low to below 27 on no news, except that news sources are justifying it by talking about the IPO of BigBand Networks (BBND) which is not even a competitor. Usually after a lock up the stock ends right back up to where it started selling off,... Continue reading »
