>>exactly what curve would that be?

Understanding Yahoo's model relative to other Internet and other media stocks, understanding Yahoo's franchise, Yahoo's competitive position and how it benefits from network effects; the appetite by advertisers for online exposure, their choices, the growth of the market, etc.

You should care where you are on the curve.

>>Why did you sell YHOO this morning?

...because I think I can buy it back later for less than I sold it for, and I don't think this Internet move can last while the financial sector is in trouble. These are high-beta stocks. If liquidity dries up, even briefly, there can be some stunning buying opportunities because market makers aren't heroes.

Nothing dries up stock-market liquidity faster than a bad bond market does.
