Ahhhh...

but man, she has sure called it right :).

Who in here is a marketing expert?

What makes the cost of an ad shown during 60 minutes as much as 30X more expensive than one shown at say, 11:30 pm?

What makes the value of the Coca Cola brand name so high? (how many billion is it worth?)

it's the same thing that makes YHOO's valuation high.....

Now, are people going to suddenly quit watching 60 minutes? or forget all about Coke?....or stop using YHOO?...no way.

Even the little no-name "wine.com" company mentioned here, made more money than anyone (even themselves) thought they would, on the net. Who the hell ever heard of this outfit?...yet they kicked some a$$..huh?

YHOO (and AMZN as well) will have such high earnings it will simply be "unbelievable".

No bubble here...just that aqueous mass...

...getting ready to ooze forward again....

Mr. "Guru" - just wanted to let you know that I am among a (large ?) group of "lurkers" thrilled to read your thoughts on "the great" Yahoo.

I, too, cannot help but expect Yahoo to sell eventually at a much lower price.

Will have fun watching this one eventually reach a rational price.

Jon.
