I thought about peer P/E comparison, but have never used it. If a cross-sectional comparison works, how can the company's P/E maintain high for such a long time. Note that, Baidu is a monopolist, while Sina and Sohu are merely market leaders. So Baidu should have a P/E premium over those news portals, if comparable. Now I use P/E band, time series might be more reasonable.
