"HAS ANYONE HEARD AN ANALYST, ANYWHERE, WHO ISN'T PREDICTING THE IMMINENT PRICE COLLAPSE OF INTERNET STOCKS?"

There is no question that many analysts have been predicting a "gloom and doom" scenario for this sector for the past while, and although I cannot provide exact sources/quotes, I have read that other analysts predict this will still be a good year for internet stocks in general and other IPO's despite some consolidation. It seems that many on this thread are unduly concerned about watching internet prices go down along with BII during the first part of this month, and I am surprised that many did not expect this prior to January 1. This market is not entirely governed by "perception" as the Chief has stated, and not everyone has got the itch to sell simply because a broker/analyst tells them to. The desire to cash in is because of the profits people have made, and none of us here can blame them for doing so. It's just plain common sense. People will cash out, but a buying spree will eventually kick back into high gear and drive prices upwards like before. Instead of calling it the "imminent price collapse" of internet stocks, maybe a better term for all us to use would be "a moderate dip in share prices due to profit-taking". This is natural and a good thing for these stocks at this stage of the game. Hey, if nothing else, look at it as another buying opportunity for BII stock, because it will probably be the last great sell-off before we really take off!
