WebMD Health Corp. (WBMD)

cash flow and cash on hand

The Medical industry is on the verge of finally going electronic. Someone has to step in and help convert all those paper medical records and help the Obama administration succeed in streamlining health care. This company has worked hard in placing themselves at the front of the line. Even a small chunk of the growing industry to go electronic will bring plenty of profit.

When the overly optimistic FOMC says that household spending will be "constrained" by sluggish income growth, ongoing job losses, lower household wealth, and tight credit AND Shanghai stocks hit a seven-week low, then you know this bear market rally is finally over!

The 1929-1930 equity rally (coming out of The Great Depression) lasted 147 days and the market was up 46%. It has been the same amount of time since the March, 2009 low and we are up about the same percentage. It’s déjà vu (paramnesia), so prepare for a drop of about the same percentage (85%).

we live in the information age and with health care becoming more and more pricey web MD should do well

2/10/09 Pitch: Downthumb. Earnings 2/19/09, 4:45 PM. Very high valuation based on optimistic forward projections by company. Unlikely to meet them.

Speculation, a source for medical informaiton with paying for gas to get there :)

If I were dying, I'd go to a real doctor.

Health relations 101: There are plans for this stock to make a projected fall. Keep your fingers crossed, the service it provides should welcome a since of added stability for long term update.

1* stock. Down 25% in last month. Missed with last earnings. Looks like more room on downside here

someone will buy these guys before the year is over

Sure am going against the tide here, but if advertisers are going to look at the time surfers spend at a site, this one has got to be a winner.

In the nearterm, WebMD is definitely not a buy. Their earnings are coming in way under projections, however one would have to think that as WebMD figures out how to nose it's way into some of the profits from the massive Healthcare market, my pick will change to an outperform for 2008. As such, I have picked an outperform over the long time period.

Forward P/E of ~100 for a company growing at ~18%. I don't think so.

P/E are at 649.75 need I say more?

baby boomers and others serious about health

Too Much too soon. Wait a year or two for the P/E to decrease, possibly

Valued as if 800% EPS growth would be a conservative estimate....

Overpriced
