Google looks like a great buy to me!

[exartizo]

I bought some shares of Google today. The stock has been hammered by Wall Street for no really good reasons, in my opinion.

Google was off 12% this week because of the fear and greed of Wall Street analysts and goons.

I say it's a good time to buy Google for a number of reasons:

1. Google is the leading innovator and powerhouse in its industry.

2. The company is mega-profitable.

3. The company has good leadership and world shaking ideas.

4. Google is taking market share from Yahoo and MSN as I write this.

5. Google is advancing technology on as many different fronts as it can simultaneously. Great ideas and businesses are sure to spring forth and make the company even more profitable.

6. I believe Google is the Microsoft of the 21st century, yet the company is worth still only a fraction of the goliath Microsoft.

7. Google is at least twice to three times more agile in the marketplace as its competitors.

When the dust settles in upcoming internet powerhouse battles.. my bet is firmly on the number one company.

Google and no other by a country mile.

Nice, I hope your shares go up in value
Hopefully Google's shares will recover and grow soon.

The stock market is a spiritual place and the wisdom and understanding that comes from God through his son Jesus Christ is my primary influence in making such decisions.

I do not believe in luck and all other factors in making decisions in life should be secondary, as much as is humanly possible.

I also looked very closely at the technical indicators of the stock, the sector influences, the broader market indexes and other factors. Late in the day yesterday a "buy signal" came through on Google stock based on a number of technical indicators.

You really have to like technical indicators and be willing to rely on them to some degree.

Their value tends to decrease in a volatile market or regarding a volatile stock (such as Google recently). The market has also been more volatile so that needs to be taken in to consideration.

And coming out of left field we have exartizo!!! What the hell are you smoking brother? Not only is that random, but inappropriate for the thread and forum...

I buy google shares as well.. virtual ones.. unfortunately I don't have the money at the moment for **real** shares

I want google to buy itself for me. So I'll buy shares from my adsense profits. I heard some guys doing this, but they will to make google suck, not like me: I only want some shares. Eventually they got more than 1000 shares.

[bhopkins]

That really does not sound like a bad idea of reinvesting part of your adsense earnings back into the stock.I personally think Goog is a little over priced right now, but if it mantains the trand of late it may turn back into a buy before very much longer. We'll have to see about whether the rumors of Google purchasing Sun Microsystems is true and if that is then it probably has some long term factors for the direction of the company.

[cruocitae]

Sun helped Larry Page and Sergey Bin to start up, with a $100k check, hasn't it? Nice reaction..

There was a topic about google changing its logo.. well.. go, pray a bit for that and I'm sure if they will change their logo, the shares will go under with at least $20.

I'd have to disagree with you Alb.

I don't know how much investing you do, but spiritual influences and understanding them are ALWAYS relevant to life.

The source of understanding the spiritual world is God'w Written Word.

The source of wisdom about prosperity is also God's Written Word.

This is the overriding understanding that a man has to have about investing in order to be able to prosper, my friend.

Please do not make references to my personal life as I do not take drugs, and honestly, I find your comments to be the irrelevant ones to this thread and forum.

Usually, people who point fingers and label other people via name-calling are dreaming of their childhood, or worse, trying to re-enact it as adults.

You will note that uncommon ideas are sometimes correct.

There is an old saying:

WHAT IS RIGHT IS NOT ALWAYS POPULAR.
WHAT IS POPULAR IS NOT ALWAYS RIGHT.

Looks like Google stock is doing great as of today!

It's up to $412.72 as of the writing of this post.

Wisdom is the principal thing.
Therefore get wisdom.
And with all your getting
get understanding.

This forum is not the appropriate place for theological discussion.
If you have an overwhelming compulsion to proselytize, please do it elsewhere.

I'm dismayed by your apparent lack of objectivity.

I was simply responding to the gentleman's accusation. I wasn't the one who was throwing around personal jibes as Mr. Albatross's note seems to indicate.

I'm concerned by your apparent censorship of my personal beliefs. That hardly seems Google-like.

I'm also concerned with if you went to school or learned how to spell.

The correct spelling of your biased accusation is "proselytize".

Let me get this straight, it's ok to belittle others on this forum with epithets and slurs about my character but it's not ok to state my religious beliefs?

Care to elaborate, Mondine?

By the way, I noticed you didn't address anything related to an investment in Google, nor did Mr. Albatross, which is what I do believe this forum is about.

For your information, Google stock closed up today at $411.80 in after hours trading.
