>>Unless you expect... positive net income sometime soon

Hello? Yahoo has been cash-flow positive for five quarters, and profitable from operations for the last three quarters, plus operating margins have tripled over the last year. Yahoo is plenty profitable. Yahoo ends each quarter with more cash in the bank...the true proof of profitability.

Don't listen to the charge-off freaks. Charge-offs result in reported losses, but really amount to little more than a terrific tax break.

Forget all the other noise, and keep your eye on only a few things: Operating earnings, operating margins, page-view growth, commerce revenues as a percent of total revenues, advertiser count, cost-per-thousand advertising impressions, and DSO.
