Gary,

Here is how institutional investors are looking at Cisco's valuation:

Current price of $52 = 85times CY00 consensus EPS
81 times consensus + 3 cents

PE on 5/19/99 = 69 times CY99 consensus
PE on 5/19/98 = 40 times CY98 consensus

Expected revenue growth = 30-50% as per company guidance
Expected EPS growth = 25-45% as per company guidance

Realistic Discounted Cashflow Value = $30-40

Look, things may change, but it feels like we are returning to a market where things like earnings acceleration and upside EPS surprises matter again. Big funds are using every upside pop in the stock to unload big overweighted positions. There will be alot of pressure in the absence of a big positive surprise and continued strong Cisco performance is no surprise.
