Pulso de mercado

Increible, tanto en el Dow como el S&P han hecho un doble suelo y de ahí de vuelta al punto de partida, a ver como vienen mañana los futuros, saludos.

Lo que decía antes el Ibex no tiene fuerza ni para caer ni para subir, hoy los bancos han estado más flojos quizás influidos por la banca europea, lo probable de no haber una reacción muy pronto es que el Ibex acabe bajando hasta los 8.500 y de ahí intente nuevamente superar esos 8.950, saludos.

Noticias frescas sobre Zynga: ha presentado resultados peores de los esperado y está perdiendo en el After Hours casi todo lo que había ganado hoy en el mercado regular. Y eso que los resultados no son malos del todo, pues ha subido un 59% su facturación nada menos pero ha presentado unas pérdidas en Q4 de $435 millones atribuible al gasto en "cloud-computing infrastructure".

Zynga Posts Loss In First Earnings Report

--Shares down after hours after quarterly loss

--Sales climb 59% to $311.2 million

--Costs up sharply as Zynga spends on cloud-computing infrastructure

SAN FRANCISCO (Dow Jones) -- Zynga Inc. (ZNGA) issued its first earnings report as a public company on Tuesday, posting mixed results that included a 59% gain in sales but also a loss for the fourth quarter that helped send the social gaming firm's shares lower following an extended climb.

Zynga, the publisher of online games such as "Words with Friends" and "FarmVille," went public in a $1 billion offering in December, one of a number of young Internet companies to stage an IPO of late.

"Social gaming, and more broadly play, is becoming the new TV," Zynga Chief Executive Mark Pincus said during a conference call with analysts. "Zynga is well positioned to capture this large and growing market."

As Zynga spent heavily to expand during the fourth quarter and shouldered new costs as a public company, profit did not keep pace with its sharp gain in revenue.

The San Francisco-based company reported that it swung to a loss of $435 million in the quarter ended in December, compared to a profit of nearly $43 million in the period a year earlier. Sales rose to $311.2 million. On an adjusted basis, earnings were 5 cents a share.

Costs and expenses grew sharply to $797.8 million from $124.3 million. Much of the spending was on Zynga's cloud computing infrastructure, used to store data.

In addition, the company was hit by over $500 million in expenses related to stock previously issued to employees, which had to be recognized in accounting following the IPO.

Wall Street analysts had been looking for Zynga to post adjusted earnings of 3 cents a share, and $302 million in revenue for the quarter.

Shares of Zynga were down over 6% to $13.43 in late trading more than an hour after the company reported results.

The shares had been on a sharp climb, rising over 52% in value from the beginning of the year to the close of the regular session Tuesday. That was based largely on Facebook Inc.'s recent disclosure that 12% of its revenue last year came courtesy of Zynga, which makes its games available via the social network.

Zynga in turn relies heavily on Facebook for nearly all of its revenue.

However, Zynga has efforts underway to wean itself from its dependence on Facebook by gaining traction on mobile phones and other platforms, which analysts and investors are watching closely.

An independent site for Zynga games dubbed "Project Z" is now being tested internally, the company said Tuesday. Zynga has also recently diversified some of its revenue by inking a licensing deal with toy maker Hasbro Inc. (HAS)

Evercore Partners analyst Ken Sena pointed to Zynga's disclosure Tuesday that three of its games were among the top money makers on Apple Inc.'s (AAPL) mobile software in the quarter as "a clear positive" in terms of gaining independence from Facebook.

However, Sena noted that it remains unclear what percentage of Zynga's total business is now coming through venues other than Facebook.

One particularly strong point in the quarter noted by Sena: Advertising revenue from Zynga's games rose more than twofold to $27.3 million.

Overall, daily users rose 13% in the quarter to 54 million, Zynga said, while monthly users rose 23% to 240 million.

"In terms of Zynga coming out of the gate, they exceeded consensus and they're guiding to a pretty good growth number," said Robert W. Baird & Co. analyst Colin Sebastian.

Zynga provided guidance for the full year, saying it expects adjusted earnings between 24 and 28 cents a share. Analysts projected 22 cents a share, according to Thomson Reuters.
