Market cap means nada unless you're trying to sort companies into micro/small/mid/large categories. It's an imaginary figure

Wow, uncle Frank, you must be the rich uncle I have been looking for all my life. I got a bridge to sell you in San Diego. Trust me. Market price for the bridge is just an imaginary figure.

*******incredibly off topic********

Frank, re: 'I'm heading over to the meat market to pick up some thick NZ lamb chops this afternoon. I usually just paste it with tons of garlic and sage and barbeque it; any good recipes would be appreciated.'
Uncle Frank you will owe me for the rest of your natural born days for this one. Bag yourself a copy of 'Mastering the Art of French Cooking' (Julia Child, et.al.) and head to "Gigot a la Moutarde" which is a herbal mustard coating for roast lamb, which is on page 335 in my Martini splattered copy. Grab a butter-flyed leg of lamb, coat it with this stuff, and BBQ your bim-bims off. I don't take the quantity of each ingredient in the recipe too seriously and in fact exponentiate the suggested garlic amount. Also use FRESH ginger as opposed to the powdered stuff that Julia sez is O.K. Finally, do yourself a favor and make a double size cuz this stuff is so great you'll be glad you did.
Maurice: do NOT read this post. If this gets out in NZ, there won't be a sheep left within a week. But I do thank you for giving us the real oil on Ramsey's peevish behavior--having your mom-in-law blow your socks off in the old stock picking game would be impossible for Mr. Su to stomach. He thinks everything I own is dog Ka-Ka and has sent me reams of computer output to prove it. The only thing he can't explain is my rate of return but he assures me the answer will be forthcoming as soon as he installs Office 2000 (bootlegged copy). I tried to assuage him with an offer of a free introductory series of golf lessons, but this apparently enraged him further.
Go figure. Surfer Mike

Did you buy enough for me, too? Garlic and sage and barbequed sounds too delicious. My pasta dinner is looking sad.
