Tom,

RE: Cisco's P/B

First off, Price to Book measures tangible assets, not intangible ones. P/B valuation should be considered for automakers, industrial equipment, etc.

Have you ever taken a look at Intel's P/B? How about MSFT p/b?

Now, with respect to their P/S ratio. For the last 6 months, Cisco has amassed 13.267B in sales. Yahoo shows a market cap of 257.3B. Annualize Cisco's sales to approximately 26.5B and one gets a P/S of 9.5x

Where are you gettin gyour numbers?

Additionally, Cisco has continued to grow their earnings. That is a massive positive in this downward spiraling economy. The Guidance Cisco gives for the upcoming 6-12 months is important.

Tom, I'll let u "borrow" my shares to short. Just send me a pic of you and the wife and kids so I know whose money i'm taking... <g>
