Jim: The problem is that Yahoo will drop when nobody expects it too. This is my fear too. Is it the case that Vinik owns a lot of shares of YHOO? Someday someone will begin to sell huge blocks and a panic will set in to check the euphoria. If the price drops sufficiently, it may be a good buy, IMO. A lot of Wall Street fund managers think of YHOO as an internet media company. This will be valid if YHOO begins to show real revenues and profits. If revenues and earnings do not show up as highly as expected, someone will begin to unload blocks of the stock and that will end the exuberance. If, however, YHOO shows a lot of profits and revenues, the stock may remain stable amid volatility, IMO. Sankar
