<< 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 >>

Check out a company called @Home (ATHM). Price to sales of 1000, market cap over $4 billion. I recommend buying that one in addition to YHOO and AMZN. <g>

If you guys would just wake up and figure out that YHOO is going up because of a short squeeze instead of fundamental reasons you would all be a lot better off. Don't try to argue fundamentals when it's a near-term supply/demand issue.

Stocks can go to extremely absurd levels on momentum alone. Does anyone remember IDID?

@Home's market cap is $4 billion, and it's selling at 900 times sales, 18x Yahoo. Then again, @Home is owned by its distribitors and has a monopoly.
