<<It is amazing to me how stupid these giddy analysts are over eBay - where were they 18 months ago -- as usual, they are too late to the party...>>

Heh Heh. Well said. I was watching Moneyline on CNN yesterday. One reporter, who listened on the conference call, said in all smiles that "they are firing on all cylinders."

What is interesting is that the collective IQ of the analysts (who are tripping over each other in praising this fleabag), the financial media who has no idea how to read a balance sheet (much less simple things like operating income vs interest income, sequential growth) and the perma bulls (who are salivating on this earnings report which is a complete joke), is much smaller than the eBay's reported "operating income per share."

One would think so since it's a POS, but it seems to be holding steady. I think it'll run up again after the split and then it will be good to short. It's really only worth 10-20 bucks right now but people are working hard to sustain the bubble.
