587.0. "Wellfleet Communications" by ZENDIA::FERGUSON (Red X) Wed Oct 13 1993 13:53

Wellfleet.

Involved in the networking gear business.  Many trade rags have branded this
company as a rising star.

Yesturday, they reported profits up 135% (I reckon).

Stock was up 6 1/4 yesturday to close ~53 

Good buy?
Opinions?

587.1hearsayAKOCOA::CRUZWed Oct 13 1993 16:574
    I heard an analyst's report somewhere in the last day or so saying
    that they expected it to climb to 63 in the short term... this is
    strictly hearsay, however...
    
587.2Roller coaster stock - but goes up mostly !RELYON::MITTALThu Oct 14 1993 14:4112
    
     If you do buy Wellfleet, make sure you don't eat anything else to 
    upset your stomach. WLFT will do a good enough job by itself ! This 
    stock can oscillate over 10 points within a week. It has a very high
    P/E ratio and it has been rising steadily ever since I saw it first at
    about 35 (went to 78, split 2 for 1 and is now at 51.5).
    
     My opinion is to buy it the next time it goes down to the 45-47 range.
    It seems to follow Cisco very closely.
    
     Good luck,
     Nitin
587.3.."SELL NOW"ISLNDS::HUTNICKFri Oct 15 1993 01:276
    Yeh, I wish I bought Wellfleet like the rest of you who didn't. I read
    the latest Cabot newsletter (October edition). Wellfleet "may" have
    some more life in it, it says, but according to this newsletters
    momentum program,it says Wellfleet has just about reached its peak for
    a while. They recommend to "SELL NOW", and take that nice profit.
