Isn't that a bit EXTREME?. Not at all. When a stock with tiny sales like YHOO gets a market cap that exceeds General Motors Corp, THAT is extreme. Expect a lot of pain before the sentiment goes back to normal. Then there is AMZN, whose market cap got as large as the entire book industry in the USA, in spite of having only captured a tiny portion of that industry's sales. THAT is extreme. To paraphrase a bullish poster on this thread about a week ago, "You know it, I know it, everyone knows it". :-)
