[who is buying and why at these lofty levels?]

Probably the naive Disney fanatics from Main Street USA, like Marcus... Okay, seriously now -- I suspect that some broker has been hyping the stock. You can just bet that Goldman Sachs is going to have to flog a lot of shares to get rid of all the stock they bought from Eisner. I still remember a brokerage calling me frantically to push Euro Disney stock (ticker: ERDDF) and bonds a few years back...

Who is buying DIS?.

Informed fund managers who think that it is a sound long term
investment.

Incidently Microsoft has been said to be expensive for years
but it keeps going up and DIS's P/E ratio is alot less than
that of MSFT.

cheers
