Fair enough.

Let's pretend that Yahoo derives 12 million a year in income from stock quote advertising.

Now let's be generous and say that Yahoo should get 3 x Sales.

That leaves 320 million in revenue from where?

By the way, how can you be so sure that Japanese stock quotes have been profitable for Yahoo? Since the company has yet to turn a profit on any of its ventures (aside from interest on their cash), how do you know that this is not another loser?
