Everyone is looking for the next hot internet sector and it may turn out to be cyber funeral homes. The concept sounds a little strange, but, its catching on pretty fast. Here's how they work:
CFH's offer online purchase of cemetary plots, coffin's and funeral services(including body pick-up). The also offer online funeral services broadcast via internet TV to the family and friends of the dear, departed. Lastly, some of the most advanced CFH's offer monitoring services that require subscribers to check in each day and verify that they're still alive. If they don't check in for 7 days, straight, the CFH sends the wagon...
My favorite stocks in this "underground" internet sector include:
URDED(yahoourdead.com) USTIF(ustiff.com) WBYND(waybeyond.com) FLAT(flatline.com) BYBY(byebye.com)
and of course, the 800lb. gorilla of CFH's is:
FOFF(foreveroffline.com)
I know there are many more out there and would love to hear from others regarding who they think the really live CFH co's will be. When you think about the baby boom generation aging, etc., its fascination with cyberspace, etc., its not hard to see that these stocks could reach the heavens!!
