>>Yahoo has already stated that they wouldn't maintain that profit margin Yahoo has never said they won't maintain those numbers, they cautioned that they reserve the flexibility not to for competitive reasons. In September Yahoo published 30-35% as their 2000 target margin, then delivered it in 3Q98. The rest of your post is mumbo-jumbo. The fact is that Yahoo has been cash-flow positive for over a year, profitable from operations for a year, is building cash from operations(the ultimate sign of profitability), has pricing power in commerce dealing, and is only 15% sold out for banner advertising, and (along with AOL) is the first place clients turn for their advertising and commerce exposure because Yahoo dominates the portal space. Yahoo has the highest traffic on the Web. That's why the stock is so richly-valued.
