      Hmm. Didn't the Wild Weasel test squadron (designation forgotten) use something similar for their squadron patches, except the acronym being YGBFKM? I vaguely remember something like that, but don't trust my memory well enough to make a definitive statement.      ]

      In any case there should be a YGBFKM (you gotta be fucking kidding me) level PE and the nas saw that and sailed right past it. As for individual estimations on the market they are useless, no worse than useless because they are often self-serving and intentionally misleading. Historical norms merely provide some reasonably objective guidance of how far ahead of itself the market got. Generally an INVESTOR will not care about PE until it reaches the YGBFKM level. I think if you have a good tech stock in mind and want to buy it for the long term then now is as good a time as any. I would no longer put the naz in clearly YGBFKM territory
