  • eBay Watch: Skype's 12m Mark, eBay Sellers Boycott, P/E Compression [View article]
    Good comments. Your chart shows that when a growth company's earnings growth rate fall, so does it's PE. This is why calling a stock cheap because its PE is down is so misleading. PEs are falling on many stocks because their earnings growth is expected or feared to be in for a slowdown, if not worse. eBay is a retail stock, and retailers are in the dumps. Until consumer spending shows signs of recovery, eBay and most retail stocks will be relatively weak, don't you think?
