Google's issue like any hot stock is that earnings can't grow at a high rate forever. Eventually it's price earnings ratio (at 55 now) will settle in between 20 and 35 and they will have to increase earnings to increase price.
If I was an executive holding shares in the company while it's at it's likely highest P/E, I'd sell some now and when the market settles down, I'd buy back in or excercise some options. -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members.

I think there is an AOL indicator here also. Think about when AOL was at the top of its game what were they best know for? Those dang AOL CDs (or floppies) were everywhere!
Now, Google has AdSense. AdSense is everywhere (possibly the cause of most of the SE SPAM also) - it has saturated the market. I think AdSense may be the AOL CD of this decade.
Have a good day -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here -- |

AOL was kinda limited to the Internet for Dummies crowd. Google is an advertising company that is branching out from the internet, to print, radio, and TV. Some day we will be watching the Google Super Bowl or Google FA Cup or Google Tour de France. There's lots of advertising dollars that aren't in the Adsense realm at the moment. -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members.

I don't think this is a good analogy. Not everyone has a high traffic website. -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here -- |

How long until Google pulls an Enron?
The answer is 18 months ago when the company executives started dumping stock as fast as they could without getting arrested for insider trading.
God I would feel so stupid if I owned Google stock right now. -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here -- |

Actually, it is the norm for insiders to sell a good deal of stock after the freeze period. It happens after every IPO. I don't see why Google is singled out as it would be a lot more suspicious if they held on to all of it and even more if they started buying.
That's my point of view -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here -- |

Google is pretty easy to use, and I find that they are quite straightforward with their instructions on how to do well. If you have AdSense and have a decent website, marketed correctly, you too can make money, or that's the theory anyway. Why is it that as soon as someone starts making money (selling stocks that are worth a ton of money) that people get antsy? Not everyone is going to pull an Enron and only 8% is just not enough to qualify them as 'Enron worthy' in my books. -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members.

Frankly I do not care whatever happens to google, as long as they give us our adsense earnings, which you basically earn for free for putting code in your website and by doing some tricks with tags. -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members.

Wouldn't it be fair to say that if Google does "pull an Enron" that there wouldn't be any more adsense earnings? I think whatever happens to Google affects all of us, because if they go under, then we are all hooped with no earnings to be made or paid out.
