Cheryl - Price = Earnings/Share * PE Ratio... right? If one is a long-term investor, he/she focuses on: a. Earnings growth; b. A PE ratio which is consistent with the growth rate; c. Price growth over the long haul. However, if one is a short-term investor, the earnings number in the equation above isn't going to change often enough, so he/she's going to have to work on the PE ratio alone. You get that through excitement in the market, persuading the market to award the stock a higher PE ratio than yesterday. Can't blame anybody for wanting the PE ratio to go up... but I guess the salient question is: What kind of person is Scott? One who focuses on earnings, or one who focuses on the PE ratio? I, for one, hope he is the former... Loren
