Hollywood vs Dallas and PANW fundies
So yeah, I’m still in LA and have about seven meetings lined up today and another six meetings lined up tomorrow. Have you downloaded The IAm Carl Reiner app or The IAm Pauly Shore app that my company made for them? They have.
I’m learning a lot, analyzing a lot, questioning everything and otherwise working my butt off. And I can’t wait to contrast the environment at the CFA Dallas panel I’m MC’ing Thursday night with what I’m seeing and hearing here in Hollywood.
Meanwhile, I also forgot to include some of my usual fundamental and valuation analysis that we did for PANW Palo Alto Networks yesterday and which I always do for every stock before I ever consider buying (or shorting) it. And check out the Revenue Breakdown chart too.
