Here is something I don't understand. MSFT is currently trading at a forward P/E of 44 (trailing 54). Everyone is expecting next year growth rate to be 20-25%. So what the hell is the stock doing in the 140s?

I'm also amazed at stocks like YHOO (forward PE of 750!!), ONSL (850), and NSCP (60).

I'm not long or short any of the stocks at the moment, i've settled back into defensive. I tried to explain why someone would buy these stocks at these levels to a friend who wants to invest for the first time, and couldn't think of a single reason...

did jump into some ORCL today though, figure Ellison is going to kick some ass to get back into the billionare's club.
