John Clarke, thanks for pointing the way to these very nice Datek charts.

I was looking at UFAB:

datek.newsalert.com

I'm looking at the brisk and accelerating turn around in earnings projected for '00-01, and the forward p/e of 7 vs. the p/e ranges for '98 & '99. I'm a total amateur at this, but do I see an easy double or more coming? The recent 50% move doesn't seem to nearly price in what's coming--maybe I'm missing something lurking in the company's balance sheet--but these charts certainly would account for that move.

This leads me to a more general question:

Do you all think that Boom2000 can recreate the p/e ratios (or other valuation metrics) seen at the heights of '97-'99, or is that too much to hope for?

Specific comments & corrections on UFAB also appreciated.
