Just comparing yhoo to ebay - & I think yhoo is the better value: - yhoo has 613 mill shs o/s vs. 270 mill shs for ebay - both have tremendous gross profits; & near-doubling of revenues - both have huge cash hordes & no debt; but yahoo's $1.6 bill is about twice that of ebay's - for 6/30/00 - ebay made $12 mill vs. $74 mill for yahoo - ebay has a great auction site; but so does yahoo - yahoo just reported a 400% increase in auctions; so yahoo will eventually fully rival or beat ebay - both have global reach - in summary, both companies will make it. But given the greater product lines, cash horde, & profits of yahoo; & how both are around the same price (in the $high 50's); I think the much better value over the next 3-5 years is yahoo
