reposted---- i am not sure what you meant-- what does this hafta do with me. i don't know everything. (quite glad because then i would be forced to deal with people as if they are always wrong.- And live a miserable existence!) I only know what I know.- and hopefully that universe expands just a little every day ASSume whatever you like. You should be able to figure out that you (are at best) wrong when you try to second guess someone else. Listen to this guy - I'm wrong (at best) just because I "dared" to disagree him. Now I've seen everything. What a joke. Re stock valuation - it just makes plain sense that you value a stock based on the future combination of dividend payouts and/or EPS growth you expect the company to achieve. The fact that Coke or Philip Morris managed big earnings growth/paid great dividends in the past is no guarantee that they'll do the same in the future - so investors don't pay much attention to the past when they value a stock, they value future growth instead. If it was the other way around, stocks like MO and KO wouldn't have been in the doghouse for the last few years. You are at best wrong when you ASSume you know everything..
