Heavy optimism dashed quickly by a weak outlook? One analyst says you could be talking about either Oracle or the Jets.

You could be talking about either Oracle Corp. ORCL, -12.24% or the New York Jets, says one analyst in the wake of the software company’s weak forecast.There was “[s]o much hype and excitement” heading into Oracle’s report, according to Mizuho’s Jordan Klein, a desk-based analyst associated with Mizuho’s sales team and not its research unit. But with shares up 12% in the 10 days leading up to Oracle’s earnings, Wall Street was looking for an above-consensus revenue forecast, he noted.
