>>However, the risk is high because Yahoo stock compared with any other stocks, except Microsoft, is very expensive.<< I think you mean, "Microsoft stock is very expensive compared with any other stock, except Yahoo." Microsoft is another joke, in terms of valuation. But at only 15 times revenues, compared with YHOO's 53, MSFT is a bargain! Nothing comes close to YHOO's price to sales. For companies with a market cap over $3.5 billion, it's P/S ratio is more than twice the nearest competitor (excluding a few ADR's). Worse yet, it's not like YHOO's revenue growth is a slam dunk. I for one believe that if they ain't making money selling ads now, they're not going to be raking it in when the trailer park folks (and others not yet on the 'net) finally get on-line.
