Just think, if AMAT were selling at 300X the price would be
over $400/sh. I could quit work and watch my children grow.

Re: Tulipomania: I think! Maybe you're right!

Or maybe Amazon.com!!!! That name conjures up prodigious and bountifull and perhaps absurd images as well!!!! And !! with Amazon, you can't calculate the PE!, because, you see!!!!......... there is no E!...... maybe!, with all the merger mania, the two could join!!, to form an internet conglomerate profitless powerhouse!!! With a market cap bigger than McDonalds!!!!! I see synergy! I see infinite growth potential! I see a New Era!!! But what would the company be called?!! YahooingAmazons! AmazingYahoo.com!

Well, I think that Wall Street's 25yr old brokers are telling your GrandMa's and mine that, Aol, Yhoo and Amazon are internet plays, so they can't lose. That their advertising revenue expectations are to huge to even imagine.
Amzn like the others will spike up in the morning because Yhoo Announced they made .08c, .05 diluted. Now, at $100ps, who in their right mind would buy a $100 stock, in a company that made .05c?
Who?? The 25 yr old broker that has never seen a major correction in his?her life!
