I was reading a recent article about Google's purchase of an email management company Postini for $625 million in cash, natch and the concluding sentence, quoted below, made my brain explode and my bank account totally jealous:
Shares of Google rose $3.16 Monday, to $542.56. Early in the day, the stock reached a record of $548.74.
I mean, I knew Google's stock was very high, but I didn't think it was $548.75 high! That's astronomical.
