First quarter is the seasonally weakest quarter for advertising, and fourth quarter is seasonally strongest. As I remember, last year Yahoo's sequential revenue increase was 10%.

Yahoo is crossing 100 million page views, 30 million total US and 12 million registered members. Yahoo is a monster now. These results are just fantastic.

>>>One major concern, however, is the small sequential growth in quarterly revenues. A
20% growth in revenues was smaller than I would have anticipated. Does anyone have
any thoughts?<<<


Yes, this is definitely not fast enough sequential growth to support a 4.5 Billion dollar market cap, especially on such a small revenue number of 30 million. At this tiny stage of the game growth should be in the 100's %, especially now that the P/E can be calculated somewhere between 250-260 given this rate of growth.....this is actually a good number for the wall street pros to latch onto and finally have a reason to cut the stock price in half...

For the record I currently have no position in YHOO.....;^)
