Coby, you listed three great companies that basically no one debates whether they are great companies. In your mind, does "great company" status accord a stock exemption from being too high? Putting it another way: Let's say somehow we agree that csco is a buy (or hold or non-short) today at 80 (p/e 85). Will the same attain in two months at 105? And then it splits 3/2 and runs the next month to 80 again. Will the logic still be "You've got to buy, these guys are tops in their industry"? ===== as an aside, i remember a discussion that we had about buying houses. when i suggested that a house was a personal asset and that if a certain house had characteristics that were special, i might pay a little more, i got jumped on. oh no...houses are a commodity. no house is special...do comparables...study similar houses...cold hard facts. yet that same discrimination seems to be missing from your posts when it comes to stocks. if a stock is good, it is just plain good. you said you expected to be jumped on, i didn't want to disappoint ;-)
