Glenn - fyi, Peter Eavis on the Street.com tonite puts the downside risk of YHOO at $8 -- caveat - he expects the NAZ to sell off to 1500

thestreet.com

The hard question for investors is how to value Yahoo!'s shares now. At Wednesday's close, Yahoo! was trading at around 50 times expected 2001 earnings of 57 cents. If Yahoo! ends up making 38 cents in 2001, it now has an even more lofty price-to-earnings ratio of 65, using the $24.50 stock price currently seen in after-hours trading. Clearly, the stock should fall further from here. At a more realistic 2001 P/E of 20, the stock would be trading just under $8. Consider that the potential downside from here.

Do you believe Yahoo can eventually charge a small fee for their services?

Absolutely, though getting enough people to pay is the tricky part -- they ought to be working on something like a "premium content access" fee, or some special perks for members who pay the small fee. We'll see something along those lines eventually.
