All - Amazingly, even after the past four days' action, IOM has still outperformed YHOO over the past month. Here's a link to a comparative chart. quicken.excite.com Of course, if you are reading this post more than a couple of days from now, the relationship shown on the chart may have changed. The comparison between IOM and YHOO is meaningless, of course. YHOO has been a super performer pretty much since the IPO. It is hard to figure out how a company which has never shown a profit over the course of any 12 month period could rate a market cap as large as that of J.P. Morgan. (Over 16 billion dollars!) They have reported two profitable quarters, though not consecutively, with a net loss, year to date, of 21 million bucks. Yet the price keeps going up. Most likely, today's drop of 11 points is only insignificant profit-taking after an amazing upward run. I really wonder what a two year chart of Yahoo will look like, one year from now. - Allen
