What are the technology drivers that will return the Nasdaq companies to profitability and allow the index to move up without renewed bubble valuations?

The big technology driver will be unit growth. It makes no difference if this unit growth comes from computers, cell phone, PDA's games, MP 3 players, or MSFT's X box. Likely it will come from an area that we are not now giving much consideration to.

>>>without renewed bubble valuations<<< In any 10 year period of stock market time there will always be some area of the market exhibiting a bubble valuation. So there is no protection against that one. Like a kid with a bubble wand, while some are bursting overhead, new ones are being formed by his breath.

Some posters have read about the great depression and its effect on the stock market. But during those three years 1929 to 1933 some stocks rose nicely. It was the bubbles that got destroyed. (gold and silver stocks)
