OK, shorts your messiah has come: I am buying Yahoo as soon as my check clears E-TRADE. Longs you have three days to get out!

If you don't believe me, look at this list of my holdings! I AM the plague for any stock on the move!

APM - 30
TDFX - 25
ORCL - 28

Want to know something REALLY killing me - I owned YAHOO at 30......

AAARRRRRRRGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

Mark, read Cramer's post on managing a start up....He states there are times to manage toward profitabity and times to maximize sales growth in your to build your brand name and drive market penetration...Yahoo is doing exactly this...Read the press release, they are committed to building their franchise WORLDWIDE!!! They are higher people and building infrastructure to support such sales growth....Once they are entrenched in terms of market share and brand dominance, then they can pull back and manage more toward profitability...

I could go on and on!! This is a BASIC CONCEPT! YHOO and other search engines and "portal" companies are in a frantic race to capture market share and build franchise dominance and worried less about profits (for now)

Enough from someone who, honestly, has NO POSITION in Yhaoo, but I am long Inktomi!!
