| After a number of massive delays over the long weekend, JetBlue sent out an apology email, in addition to apology advertisements in East Coast newspapers, to everyone who has ever flown on their airline, with a link to a customer Bill of Rights. The "rights" take the form of vouchers for future travel on JetBlue. |

Art Chang is amazed that Google's (GOOG - $616.32) market cap now exceeds Time Warner (TWX - $19.10), Disney (DIS - $35.39), and News Corp (NWS - $24.48), combined. He's right to be amazed, but when you think about it from the point of view of someone buying a business, it's not that amazing. Google (GOOG - $616.32) is in a growth business, those other companies are not. ![]() At 30 times next year's earnings, Google is a bargain compared to most companies with the same growth rate. However, Google's profits are all search. At some point a better product will come along. The question is, will Google have diversified enough by then? Disclosures: I do not own Google (GOOG), Time Warner(TWX), Disney (DIS) or News Corp (NWS). Of the three, I'd choose Google, but all of them have too much downside. I would look at TWX, DIS, or TWX if they were much cheaper. They all look like fully valued, value stocks right now. I have traded Google both long and short in the last two years. I also bought Google the day of the IPO at around $95 and sold at $165. (way too soon!) Site Disclaimer Photo/logo courtesy of SearchEngineland.com
