William,

Just out of curiousity (even though I am short this stock, I still value your trading/ investment insights), when you trade, are you always on the long side or do you venture an occasional short transaction?

Also, if the answer is yes, would you ever short YHOO? At what price?

Thanks...

>>However, you know it is not good to buy YHOO above $50 why you keep saying YHOO is a great company.

Sorry that I may annoy you, but Yahoo is a great company, and I'm not entirely sure that buying Yahoo here is a terrible idea. The stock is acting very well.

You seem intent on questioning my motives. If it weren't for a couple of us here, this thread would be completely one-sided on the short side. I think it's good that someone take the time to refute some of the short "hype" posted here, too.

I've been to more of the company's investor presentations, probably know more about the advertising business than anyone here, and have been investing for a long time. That's not to say my take is entirely right, but I have some important things to add.
