Google barely clears
Q4: 1.29B, or $1.54 a share. Wall St. consensus was 1.29B and $1.76.
The stock gets sheared, but Wall St. called the revenue numbers exactly right. The earnings difference seems to be caused by tax rate increases from 30% to 41%
Ouch.
The stock only going down by 15% seems like a very muted reaction to me...
