Both of the above comments refer to cliches that have been repeated so often that it's tempting to believe them.
We read all the time about number 1 or number 2, but companies survive or die based on profitability and fiscal responsibility, not market position.
Also, revenue model != revenue or, more importantly, earnings. And whether a company has a good revenue model is at best peripherally related to how accurately it's valued.
