re Google, Amazon: if/when these companies get serious about bringing revenue to the bottom line (as earnings) in a substantial way, the stocks should rise. This has been my premise anyway. If these stocks are analyzed with typical value metrics -- p/e, p/bk, p/sales -- it's a tremendous stretch to conclude they are value buys. There may be other ways though to look at such stocks to see if they might be a value in a different way, a way that allows for a buy by a 'value' investor. I have posted on Google here a number of times. I value the company (GOOG, now ~$623/sh) between $607 and $708/sh if Google can maintain its margins and hit the average analyst estimate (Yahoo number) for earnings this year and next. Yes, big jump in share price and market cap for these companies. For me though, I don't view the stocks as overvalued, and I continue to hold my shares.
