If one looks at the chart from a long-term perspective, one finds that the company has never sold off properly except in 2000 and is still rising. That's great for stock owners, but for new investors given the valuation, I think it's high. But on the stock, that doesn't mean the growth is over. The company can continue to strengthen. I don't own it and I'm not thinking about buying it at this time.
