I agree. This reminds me of Zitel when it was trading near 70. Scary because everyone assumed it would never stop going up, yet a no-brainer short in retrospect.

> How fortunate for the person who stumbles upon this thread and goes short above 55. Hm...well, I just stumbled upon this thread. However, I am most certainly NOT going to short YHOO....I agree that the current valuation borders on the insane, and a crash is inevitable. As for what might trigger that crash, a story on "over-hyped Internet stocks" in IBD or the WSJ might trigger it, and once it starts crashing it will go down...down...down.. However - although I am pretty convinced that that stock will eventually come crashing down, I will not attempt to predict when that will happen, and as far as I see it, a price increase if 20% from the current level is just as likely as a crash in the near term.
