Does anyone know the following: (1) Is AMZN the first company to ever become part of the NASDAQ 100 before ever earning a penny in profits ? (2) Are there many funds which invest in the NASDAQ 100 index ? What I am really wondering is will a great deal of new money be invested in AMZN as a result of the company being added to the index ? (3) With the likes of YHOO and AMZN the aggregate p/e ratio for securities making up the NASDAQ 100 Index must be sky high. (MSFT, CSCO while excellent companies certainly have high p/e 's as well).
