BRCM has a P/E ratio of 184.90 suggesting it is around 10 times overvalued. A company making diamonds for 10 cents a carat would be valued less than that! PMCS has a P/E ratio of 236.30 --- sheer madness. AMCC has a P/E ratio of 189.20 --- insanity. So. To answer your question Broadcom is the "bargain" of the group. Technically CNXT has no earnings and thus no P/E but by comparison it could be described as a "screaming buy". i.e. I would be screaming as you forced my to buy it at gunpoint. CSCO has a P/E ratio of a mere 121.40. By comparison almost modest. All this little exercise has really done is provide me with yet more evidence that the mania is still in full flood. Ask me again at Nasdaq 1,500, which should be sometime in late December or early January at this rate.
