Sarmad,

Your statement confirms my point. The current fervor is able to sustain what I consider unsustainable prices. At some point in time (which I admit I cannot predict) results will be required to keep the fervor alive. Once it becomes apparent that Yahoo cannot grow to meet 400, 500, 600 p/e's those ratios will drop. And drop hard.
