Brain, I dont think it is revenues that matter, I remember a company doing internet commerce before there was an internet. It was the first company to have revenues of over 1 mil using online sales. Right now their revenues on pure internet sales are higher than all of these internet companies combined. DELL dosent count since they have to ship a product and the profit margin is not almost 100%. This was a small company called MCAF. So if its not revenues then its management? or something else? How about, well its not anything, but pure momentum. Someone sees one flying and everyone jumps on. They look around and see some movement in one of the others and that one flies. The shorts get killed with margin calls and causes even more momentum. Once it stops a lot of people will be holding some expensive toilet paper.
But hey dont feel bad, Mr.DELL is down 139 mil today :( oh man he is going to be so sad on thanksgiving weekend.
