Analysts: eBay's Current Quarter Tracking Well

3/26 - "Citigroup says that to date they have tracked 574MM Total Core listings consisting of 196MM U.S. listings and 378MM international listings. Combined with the estimated 89MM store listings we have tracked QTD, they estimate total listings growth improved to +13% Y/Y, tracking ahead of Citi's 1Q08 growth estimate of 11% Y/Y."

"Jefferies notes eBay's February pricing tweaks are having positive effects on 1Q results, with 1Q listings pointing to a healthy 9% Y/Y growth and translating into results likely at the higher-end of expectations. With the stock's pullback, EBAY is the cheapest among large cap internet plays, providing an attractive risk/reward profile."
