Morgan, Looks like you had fun trading the internet stocks today. Any rally we see in the next couple of day will probably end up resulting a big decline by Friday. These declines of the last 2 days in net stocks are probably enough to scare some investors out of these permanently--resulting in some more declines shortly (especially if we see a bounce in the morning). Short sellers are finally confident enough to take on the internet stocks--with a vengeance! I was lucky to be able to sell my small positions in GNET, Lycos, Yahoo, CMGI last week. Only ATHM was left for this week--which i sold yesterday.
This might be a big time correction that may finally bring the valuations to little more reasonable levels.

I would not be surprised to still see MSFT also drop a couple of dollars leading into next week's resumption of the trial. I was about to get rid of all my shares today to buy back at the end of the week but decided not to take the chance. Instead, i might hold off a little more before buying short term calls---however i am almost ready for leaps2002.

Maybe the internet investors are ready for solid growth companies now. MSFT would be at the head of that list, IMHO.
