Satish, my experience suggests a Darwinian type event always proceeds these large crashes. The weakest lamb,must be led out to slaughter first,with blood flowing on the streets. Then they will go after the stronger lambs,until the final event,and the strongest it taken out. So I would think companies like GNET must be slaughtered first,then the XCIT's of the world,and the last to be slaughtered will be ATHM and YHOO. Then its time to step in and pick up those which did not deserve to be dismembered.I am not sure of the ones I will pick up,but I am starting to look around,like a wolf.

<< Best place to start is of course the high tech companies that changed the world: INTC and MSFT. Amazingly, going back to 1991, these stocks never had P/S above 10 >>

Might want to check again, even now at a market cap over $200 billion M$FT has a P/S ratio of over 10. Actually right now it's closer to 20 than 10.

Most of those other companies in your post are not comparable to YHOO so I don't understand the comparison.
