Gottfried,These are companies like Cisco (CSCO: news, msgs) and Lucent (LU: news, msgs), Intel, Microsoft (MSFT: news, msgs), Oracle (ORCL: news, msgs), Applied Materials (AMAT: news, msgs). Really big strong companies. But it's not their bigness that got them there, it's their dominance of a business that got us excited about the companies.
In other words, they are Gorilla's like we have been talking about. The only one I question is Oracle. All the others,IMO, would be a safe play for investing in the internet stocks.
Do you are any other threaders, have any thoughts regarding QWST? It dropped $10 today with the announcement of buying US West and another company.
