Just noticed how overvalued this stock has become based on the comments regarding Capcom's shipment targets. Umbrella Chronicles is down for the day, but it sounds like an ever steeper correction is warranted. The expect to ship/sell 620k, and the forecast is trading at 106 DKP (1.06 million)?? Who keeps buying this up?
What's funner than singleplayer Umbrella Chronicles? Co-op Umbrella Chronicles, that's what. And what do you know, the latest Famitsu has confirmed just that, with Capcom's upcoming on-rails zombie shooter for the Wii to allow for side-by-side play. Constant high-fives and action-movie-banter are not mandatory, but are of course highly recommended.
what the hell is going on with this stock? What evidence is there for this to rise 32% today. I know the new system means greater movement but someone is buying this like crazy. If they're buying uot of a short then they are very foolish as it's losing them money given the steep rise. If they are buying for a long position then I can't understand it. Yes saint was right that its in their interest to predict low but if their analyst predicts half of what the game actually sells then what use is he as an analyst at all. He's not gonna risk his job on one game. Even if he was given orders by the powers that be in capcom his reputation outside the company is tarnished
of course they are going to project low, they are a publicly traded company... If they go and tell their shareholders "We are going to sell 5 million copies of this game" and they only sell 4.5 million, their stock price goes down. if however, they tell their shareholders "we are going to sell 500k copies" and they actually sell 1 million, even though the actual sales are lower than the previous example, their stock goes up.
It is the best business practice, they need to always undercut what they think they can do.
As far as this game itself, i figure, you have a whole lot of Wii consoles out there, millions, and not many adult oriented games like resident evil, especially games with the reputation of resident evil, i think it will do pretty well.
During Capcom’s 2007 Fiscal Year results meeting, Capcom, this game's publisher, revealed their sales projections for a number of games. They're expecting this game to sell 620K, nearly half the current stock price. I feel this game's stock is now very overvalued. No one knows this game better than Capcom.
