Bing Attracts New Searchers, But So Far Only For a Trial

If you take the 2 weeks individual percentages and base line them for a 100% (since both weeks somehow total over 100%), you get a suprising number.

Week 1:
Google 69.7%
Yahoo 21.5%
MSFT 8.8%

Week 2:
Google 68.5% (actually down)
Yahoo 20.9%
MSFT 10.6%

Using those #s, Bing actually caused both Yahoo and Google to lose market share. At least temporarily.

Bing Attracts New Searchers, But So Far Only For a Trial

Pardon my ignorance, but why do the percentages for Google, Yahoo, and Bing total 106.9%? And that's only for the Big 3.

Are some of the searches shared with two search engines both getting credit?

Ten Stocks to Hold Long-Term - Barron's

Wow, y'all have actually convinced me to buy Ebay this week.

I'm willing to take a chance on it with such an extreme negativity expressed here.

We'll see if you are truely contrary indicators...

Ten Stocks to Hold Long-Term - Barron's

All you rabid Ebay bashers realize you are probably contrary indicators.

The stock is already down over 80% based on the problems mentioned. Few were bashing it so rabidly at 50/share. And yet now nothing but bashers which usually, historically speaking, is a great time to buy a stock that is suffering from many internal problems and being bashed by everyone....cuz if those problems get fixed, then zoom zoom zoom.

Just an observation...

Nokia: Bargain of a Lifetime - Barron's

"Bargain of a lifetime?"

How old is that analyst Veverka??? Is he too young to remember when NOK traded at ~$3 in the mid-90's, or even sub $15 just a few years ago.

He may think it's a good buy now, but good gawd, no reason for him to use silly (easily refuted) hyperbole to make his case.
