High P/Es result from A) High prices or B) low earnings. Should earn-
ings increase the P/E will fall. If earnings are near zero the P/E
could be 10000 or more at a price of 1 or 100. I admit that companies
in large stable industries should have a P/E range of 10-20, but techs
are another dynamic (not stable) industry.
