>> BTW, I think that in five years, we will all find that it's a smart move to invest in YHOO! right now. Damn, the valuation is too high...but that's a darn great company, with great management. This boy can easily be a 50 billion company at around 2005 <<

I am a YHOO believer myself and think they have a great future ahead of them, but you just brought to light an interesting point. You said they could easily be a $50 billion company around 2005. That is only a five-fold increase from the current market cap of $10 billion. A 400% return in 7 years isn't exactly bad, but how does that compare to the 400% return YHOO has generated for shareholders just in the last 8 months? It's going to take several years to match the returns generated just in the last year.

That's why my enthusiasm for YHOO the stock has waned somewhat. My enthusiasm for the company grows almost everyday.
