No sector has enjoyed more of a dizzying run this past year than Internet
stocks. Anywhere any investor seems to turn these days they are bombarded by
news about the next highflying Internet stock. Be it a sizzling Internet
I.P.O. like Inktomi (INKT) or possibly DoubleClick (DCLK) - the home runs just
seem to keep on coming. Even penny stock hucksters have gotten into the
action, hyping proverbial stinky stocks such as ProNet Link (PNLK) to new
levels before watching dumbfounded investors wise up and hit the exit in
droves.

>From the crowded message boards of Yahoo! to Silicon Investor, Internet
related stocks have generated more postings, rumors, arguments and name-
calling among investors than any other area of the market. In the madness,
some hedge fund managers have attempted to "short" many of these Internet high
flyers only to watch in dismay as these Internet stocks continue to rise.
Analysts attribute much of the Internet stock sectors recent rise due in large
part to the enthusiasm of retail investors using online brokers to continually
scoop of more of their favorite Internet stocks.

Heck, after getting burned one too many times, some hedge fund managers will
no longer even take positions in Internet stocks.

"I can't imagine anyone who is still shorting these guys," remarked Randy
Hanley, an analyst at Duncan-Hurst Capital Management. "I got out of this game
a long time ago."
