Trust me, I am not shorting YHOO nor do I intend to, I was just posting my 2 cents when earnings were released (I wanted to know how they came out).

Ignore me!

Lorenzo-

I remember buying some puts on YHOO 2 years ago when the market cap was a lofty 3 billion and I thought how overvalued it was....

If it was overvalued then.... what is it now? The PE is only 1953 or so..... :)

There's this guy - was a hot senior executive in a high flying high tech co. Had a portfolio of a few millions. Decided to become a full time trader, manage his own portfolio - why pay someone to do it, why work for someone else.

Anyways, he left the job. YHOO was amongst his first few trades. Shorted it at 100. Thought it was crazy. Kept doubling up. Last year he was totally wiped out !

I'm not even making this up.... name and company details withheld for reasons of privacy...
