I imagine these types of predictions happen on a regular basis, so in reality this may or may not have been thread-worthy. The 1,000,000,000,000 market cap is pretty interesting though.
I get at least a dozen reports a day about businesses and the analysts set target prices based on the direction of the company and things like that. I didn't read this report in particular, but these guys are trying to predict the value of a company a couple of years out and often try to do this to two decimal points....I don't think that you need me to tell you that getting it right doesn't always happen!
