McNabb Bros, Thank Mark Haines negative questioning on CNBC for the drop of 6 points. In fairness to Mark they obviously weren't his questions (were prepared by staff) as it was apparent that Haines knew very little about how eBay operates. One question that was obviously slanted was saying it was all over the internet that people were getting ripped off (which is simply untrue). Why do they have to do that? He might have asked about earnings and revenues growth and future prospects but he didn't. Guess CNBC thinks it's really true that those things don't matter for internet stocks. eBay, with positive earnings, should be worth as much or more as Amazon, without positive earnings IMO. Tom
