Will the stock stay at the current level when it is known
that Intuit's TurboTax revenue is spiraling down?
Specially when their competition does it for free?
Hence, knowing that, I fail to understand why you would
like to purchase over $55 of software? Maybe the fancy
multimedia graphics? Sorry, I do not believe it will
save TurboTax.

From what I see, the latest run on Intuit's stock is due
to their multiple announcements of tax filing via the web.
The only caveat is that Intuit is now competing against
sites that do it for free (as you mentioned). Pretty tough
space to be in.

It is my belief that Intuit's stock valuation will only
be based on Quicken and Quickbooks (which are excellent
products). However, none of these are web-based which will
take it out of the Internet space.
The stock is now at an all time high of $91. Let's
see where it is in 3 months. MAY THE MARKET SPEAK!
