Abby Cohen- On the YHOO message boards everyone is talking about favorable comments Abby Cohen made about net stocks, yet I cant find any confirmation that these tremaks are real. Is it true that Ms. cohen made these comments?

I don't know for sure if YHOO has topped or not. I will be the first to admit that I have been wrong before. I do know that the more you stretch a spring, the more it will snap back eventually. There is no reasonable measure of value that could justify the prices of most of the Internet stocks. YHOO may be a great company, but it does have competition. Everyone thinking they have found the "next MSFT" is highly dillusional. With the way that I am playing YHOO, a run-up to 1000 would be fine with me. So would 2000. The more overvalued, the greater the eventual crash. I look at probabilities here. The more people there are on this and other internet boards posting the sureness of YHOO going to 500, AMZN to split 5:1 in the next 6 months, etc., the more likely that this whole sector is ready for a correction, and probably a brutal one.
