I guess one can figure out who owns YHOO just by reading your post. It is completely insane. Let us have a bet. I will predict that YHOO will be irrelevant in 5 years, and its stock will be worth about 1/10
of its current value.

Funny you should mention that. "Most" implies above 50%. I guess you need to lose that second digit in your calculations.

15:02 [FORR] FORRESTER RESEARCH SEES INTERNET AS 5% OF ALL SALES IN 2003.
15:01 [FORR] FORRESTER RESEARCH SEES INTERNET COMMERCE SALES $3.2 TRILLION IN 2003.

>> When you buy a car or book or pool or kettle or airline tickets in 2003, part of your payment will go to YHOO-bucks. <<

Get yer head out of the clouds.

>> This company will buy out Microsoft and make MSFT go honest, and will end up being the first company in history to be given a position in the US government <<

Ha! The US govt will be broke in 5 years and will probably monetize the debt or just plain default.

>> Do ya get it Craig? <<

Yeah, I got it. Your a fruit loop <g>

Try 5% give or take depending on which prediction you choose.

New valuation rules are in effect for this stock.

Actually, new valuations in in affect for fools. All firms will have competition which will keep margins in line. That will not change.

When you buy a car or book or pool or kettle or airline tickets in 2003,
part of your payment will go to YHOO-bucks.


Possibly a variety of other firms or the middleman may be cut out completely.
