True, the guy has most of his facts wrong - Why can't they quote Todd? The most important thing about this article is the exposure. THQ is hardly a household name and this sort of publicity will at least make someone pause and take a look. Overall market multiples right now are about 26 times earnings. It seems strange that anyone would look at a 'growth stock' like THQ and think that "a P/E of just 13x forward earnings which compares well to analysts' five-year growth rate consensus estimate of 30.5%" would rate " a P/E upgrade to 15 and the prospect of Y2K earnings of $2.25 per share" Wouldn't a P/E of 30 be more appropriate? Anyway you slice it, THQ is still cheap relative to the competition. Brian
