>>now Yahoo is immune to economic slowdown too?

I think so. There is cyclicality in advertising, but Internet advertising is so small that I doubt any general pull-back would affect it. Plus, the advertising marketplace here in the US is very robust right now. It usually takes a full-blown recession to see a decline in advertising spending.

Remember too that Yahoo is a worldwide thing. Yahoo Japan is growing very rapidly, yet the Japanese econony is standing still.
