The Google Stock past $400

News spread fast that people are selling Google stocks now that it has gone past $400 (high of $403.81 from BigCharts.com). That’s big bucks right there.

This, from just $85 when it went for IPO last year. That’s almost 5 times the price now. *sweet* It’s been on a steady growth ever since, even with Google buying companies left and right.

I was actually contemplating of getting some stocks (around 50 -100) but that time it was only available to US residents. T’was just a thought though but a mighty ambitious one. hehehe Oh well, good times.

Google now has a market capitalization topping $117.6 billion — the 27th biggest among stocks traded in the United States and larger than networking giant Cisco Systems (CSCO, news, msgs), banking giant Wells Fargo (WFC, news, msgs) and Coca-Cola (KO, news, msgs). And twice as large as arch-rival Yahoo! (YHOO, news, msgs) That’s more than Amazon and Yahoo! combined.

    Wow, this is what I like about buying and selling stocks especially on a growing company… only that I cannot afford such stock.

    Oh, well…
