Hi Steve, Very well said. I agree with you and have made money playing YHOO both long and short (crazy not to given the potential). I think given the current market sentiments, as a trader, one should be flexible enough to switch whichever is profitable. Main thing to understand is "don't get sentimental with a particular stock", cause traders/investor's loyality is towards making money irrespective of the stock. Like I have said before will go long on YHOO once market env. improves and it hits my target price. Regards,

Dear Steve/ALL - this is my first time on the thread, sorry to jump in without notice. Like many others, the internet has been very good to me. Specifically ISP's and the other usuals suspects -- MSFT, SUNW, BVSN. I missed the Yahoo train first time around and now think it might be a good time to re-board. One reason for this (beyond beaten up stock price) is that of all the sites I use, YHOO is the mega one. Stock portfolio, search capability etc. So, if its that important to me, I expect it is to others. However, one question I have is how Yahoo will make money in the future. Personally, I don't think advertising revs are enough nor do I think banners ads mean squat to anyone. So...any thoughts on how Yhoo will make dough would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Peter P.S. How was the last earnings report. Pos? Neg?
