Anybody know anything about McKesson HBOC, today's disaster du jour? Some poor sell side analyst made it his large-cap pick of the week two days ago at $62 (42 times earnings), and now its $33. Ouch. Is this an Oxford or Cendent that falls another 75% after the first hit, or do we see a V-bottom here?

Bricks & mortar guys with internet add-on catch a knee-jerk jump from the "anything internet" buyers, but unless they they have a unique twist to the business they are at a strategic disadvantage as a result of trying to straddle 2 positions without the appropriate value chain for the net presence. Folks are catching on to this and selling into the bounce.
