>>maybe you and i could meet over there on the thread and we could discuss why someone would pay 40 x earnings...<< Yhoo at 1c per share trades at 1893 x earnings and if they do the projected 2c per share next year it will be 947 x projected earnings. Siebel systems is 600 x projected earnings...Amazon.com has no earnings. Ebay has a high multiple that scares me to death...so what's wrong with 40 x earnings? Look at BRCM's projected earnings knowing BRCM is the INTC of broadband. Its not about earnings, it's about projected earnings. Btw Since the new economy came along I refuse to talk about PE's or valuations...because I'm clueless about the topic.
