Bonds are a good bet, and as long as overseas money keeps coming into the US dollar for safety, US Treasury bonds are the instrument of choice. They are a good value vs the inflation rate, they have replaced gold as the world's reserve currency (they are essentially US currency that pays interest) and they are absolutely secure. But...unless the US banking system is threatened by the unraveling in Asia and Russia, I think the Internet stocks can hold their own, even appreciate during this crisis. Interest rates are going lower. The US cable, entertainment and retail sectors are very strong here. Gap Stores, K-Mart, Walmart, Home Depot and Amazon all made new closing highs today...in very spectacular fashion. Disney was strong. AOL was strong. The export manufacturers are vulnerable, and electronic component manufacturers (and their suppliers) are sitting ducks. But I think that the on-line content and commerce providers are the new technology leadership...together with computer service, telecom service and some software stocks.
