[[ It will have crashed and burned long before meaningful sales come even close to gigantic mkt cap ]]

What the crazed tulip buyers (oops, YHOO investors) fail to realize is that for the price to go up, someone has to be buying. When the time comes, a lot of people will be trying to unload their YHOO shares, and there will be a shortage of buyers. (Hey, don't look at me - I wouldn't give you more than 20 dollars a share for YHOO, and that's being generous.)

I wonder how spectacular the eventual crash in YHOO will be. Will we see days of 10 dollar a share price drops? How about 50?

The only difficult part is predicting when YHOO will self-destruct. (Yes, I've lost money on option puts betting that YHOO would decline.)

AOL 's ISP business is not why they are valued as they are. Its
the potential of their ecommerce deals which makes AOL so pricey.
Same with YHOO. I can see YHOO haveing a 50 billion market cap in 5 years if not less.
