porcupine-

Thanks for the net music post. Here's one from a site I follow-

"09-Feb-99 1520 ET: TECH LEADERS: No question, techs were at the heart of the market's amazing rally over the past four months. And it has been the group leaders - Dell, Cisco, Lucent, etc. that have been pacing the sector/market. As such, traders will want to keep a close eye on these stocks for signs that the current correction has run its course. Recent history suggests that the big cap, well known industry leaders will outperform on the way down just as they did on the way up. So far, so good. Table below shows just how far the big boys have fallen from their recently established 52-wk highs."

Stock Price %Off High

Amazon (AMZN) 102 3/4 48.4%
America Online (AOL) 151 7/8 14.4%
Cisco (CSCO) 99 15.7%
Compaq (CPQ) 43 3/8 15.4%
Dell (DELL) 101 1/2 7.7%

"Average decline is 16.1% - including AMZN and YHOO... Ex-these two volatile Net stocks, average is 12%. Typically, big (non-Net) names will fall between 15% and 20% before bargain hunters step back in aggressively... "
