I remember when people were saying Google was far overvalued at a market cap of 30 billion (back at $100/share), which was greater than several large old growth companies. Are they still saying that? Extrapolating in the other direciton is probably a lost cause as well, but it is interesting to compare if nothing else. Ebay and Yahoo are much better comparisons in terms of market cap because their comapanies are much more similar. Both have market caps in the 50 billion range. If there is one valuation measure I use from time to time its P/E to growth and the PEG of all 3, interestingly is around 1.9. Heck, based on that they're all over valued! But I'll let the chart tell me whether to buy or sell.</p> I’m personally not a big fan of basing buy/sell decisions based on valuations.

GOOGs mkt cap= MSFTs mkt cap ($273 Billion) when GOOG reaches $978.71.

Google, $312, now sports an $87 Billion mkt cap.

Do the math.
