驾驶蓝图让不少科技粉丝血脉膨胀。最近跌了不少，有人觉得是估值回归，有人觉得是
中东动荡影响。作为汽车电子行业的一员，简单谈谈我对MBLY的理解。
1. 观察以色列股票，并没有出现集体暴跌的现象，所以政治因素导致大跌不大成立。
虽然MBLY在IPO时有提到以色列政治风险。
2. MBLY 2013年盈利$19.9million，营收$81.2 million，2012年营收$40.3 million。
在2013年里，OEM营收占78%，其中GM最大29%，其次Honda 25%， BMW 15%。剩下的22%
来自对已有汽车的改造。2014年第一季度营收$35.6 million。gross margin 75%。可
以看到，营收增速还是很好的。不过2014年预亏。
3. MBLY主要产品是一套驾驶辅助解决方案，包括摄像头、声音提示、显示装置，以及

发帖数: 1136 | 40 下面是一个Palo Alto High 学生自己对学校的看法。其实跟其它人所说的也差不多：
竞争激烈，压力大，但是效果不一定好。比如：
1）UC Berkeley 全校平均新生的SAT成绩低于2000.但是从Palo Alto High去的学生平
均成绩是2180. 换句话说一个学生同样的成绩在其它学区能去伯克利的，但是在Palo
Alto就不一定行了。这就像以前在北京能考上大学的分数在山东连大专都没戏。
2）前两年哈佛共录取了三个。并不多。
3）斯坦福录取的，除了“non-legacy and non-affiliated students”,也就是 a
handful。所谓Legacy就是校友和捐钱的大户，Affliated 就是教授子女。
4）好学生太多，老师给GPA太严。AP Test考5分的GPA可能还是D。成绩单拿出去难看。
老师给学生写的推荐信也很不给力。同样的学生在其它学校成绩单好看多了。老师推荐
信也更好。
