Glenn, Rob and other Big Bears How do we see the EFFECTS of more and more internut Stocks coming out w/ the dizzying rate of IPO's will affect those superstuds (?) like AMZN (my interest), YHOO, etc...? Like Broadcast.Com which tripled on the first day. I am starting to be confused w/ so many new names (and from so many bullish expectations from new junkie internut analysts) that are more crowded than stars on the sky. The bull's money will be diverted to these new promising kids on the block, or new money also pour into the old glamorous AMZN too? It seems to me every new internut kids also become a portal (worn-out jargon) or the mother of all e-commerce. Thanks Market is so bullish at a point I think that if every home owner mortgage their home and buy internut stocks, in one year they can buy 10 homes? (or all homeless!)

A few good ones from TMF: Can some please explain this market to me? Spiegel, sells clothes mail-order, has a web site Amazon, sells books mail-order, has a web site SPGLA AMZN Market cap: $94.7M $6.99B () Sales: $3.05B $219M Earnings: ($24.9M) ($33.8M) P/S: 0.25 31.9 () P/Book: 0.15 286.6 () Net margin: -0.8% -15% () - adjusted to reflect full dilution. and my favorite of the evening I was curious to read the financials of BCST, but I can't find anything. I can't find an S-1 filing or any fundamental data (revenue, earnings, etc.) I can't even find out how many shares are outstanding. What is the market cap of this company? I doubt half of the speculators who bought it today could even guess what Broadcast.com's market cap is or how much revenue they had in the last year. All the see is one thing: .com. ThrowMoneyAtMe.com, WeLoseMoney.com, LowMargins.com, NoFuture.com, they're all good as long as they're on the Internet. The mania just goes on and on and on . . . Rimpinths
