considering the P/Es that are being awarded to internet companies, one of two scenarios is more than likely. 1) msft's P/E will expand to better reflect its net businesses. if this scenario were to come true, i'd say a P/E of 80-100 in 1-2 years is realistic for msft. 2) other net companies like AOL, YHOO and the likes will have contracting P/Es and trade like more normal growth stocks in the very near future. under this scenario AOL is likely headed back to a price of $50 and YHOO is headed back to a price of about $60, and these price are not after any future stock splits. so take your pick, scenario 1 or 2. personally i'll take scenario 1 but if i'm wrong and scenario 2 pans out, look out below because if you thought this correction was bad, you ain't seen nothing yet. remember folks, it's never too late to buy msft!!
