There is a general rule
that says a high PE is sustainable if the growth of the company is high. Thus a PE of 96 is not high if Google is growing fast enough.“It is no use trying to 'see through' first principles.

and I think the bet is that, yes, it is growing fast enough. the EPS estimates for the end for the end of the year are about 30% higher than current EPS. They also have a yoy revenue growth of 70%.
so perhaps its not overvalued at this point in time...
and if you look at the competition, namely yahoo, you can see they have higher revenue growth, better operating margin, much better EPS and are leaner company."I hope I get to punch you in the face one day" - MRT144, Imran Siddiqui

The technique I have read of and would practice if I had the money to do so would be the Buy what you Buy strategy. Basicly you buy the companies that make the consumer products your already buying or planning to buy. The logic here is that your own puchasing habits constitute cutting edge market research on what companies are going to be successfull. Buy them outright and avoid the mutual fund fees and hold for basicly forever, you should end up beating the market average. The best part is its so darn simple any yokle can figure it out without knowing jack about how buisnesses actualy work.Companions the creator seeks, not corpses, not herds and believers.

Why? Did you spend half your income on Pets.com before the bubble burst?
The level of investment should be proportional to how much your actualy spending on the product so your going to be going for mostly blue chips. I would think the main danger is not enough diversification, rather then $500 on each company I'd sugjest $100 and theirs no reason you cant start now with what you already have saved. Also throw in some Index funds for even more diversity.Companions the creator seeks, not corpses, not herds and believers.

Re: This Wonderful Market!
I don't know much about the stock market but I would be wary, since Cramer is an entertainer as much as an investor. He would not be on the top of my list of guides.Originally posted by MRT144
This led me to reading 2 books by Jim Cramer; "Real Money" and "Confessions of a Wall Street Addict". It was interesting to see his strategies, and his personal life as it was affected by his career choice. I don't think I can ever be as loudmouthed as him but his enthusiasm is alluring and I am all about enthusiasm.meet the new boss, same as the old bossComment

The GAP would definitely be a loser. Their same store sales dropped 8%.“It is no use trying to 'see through' first principles. If you see through everything, then everything is transparent. But a wholly transparent world is an invisible world. To 'see through' all things is the same as not to see.”

Re: Taxes on share gains in the UK
Well I have to wait so many years before I can sell them because of the taxation issue, but again I work for a pretty big company that isn't likely to go under (GSK) so I should be OK...Originally posted by pchang
Is there such a things long term gains vs. short term gains in the UK?
If so, I recommend selling your shares as soon as they qualify for the lower tax rate. You don't want your income and your savings tied to the same thing (your employer). If they came upon hard times and let you go, you would be out of your income and your savings.Speaking of Erith:

Re: Re: Taxes on share gains in the UK
On balance I am quite sure that the 100% immediate rate of return realized by the employer's matching investment would make this worthwhile regardless of the tax implications . . .Originally posted by Provost Harrison

Yes, but there are no tax implications as long as I hold them for a period of time before selling them...Speaking of Erith:

I find that hard to believe--You must pay some tax on the shares that were GIVEN to you-- how about appreciation while you hold themYou don't get to 300 losses without being a pretty exceptional goaltender.-- Ben Kenobi speaking of Roberto LuongoComment
