Interesting article on Internet stocks

There's Still Time to Hop On the Net Bandwagon

By Fred Barbash
Sunday, July 11, 1999; Page H01

If you blindly accept the generalization that Internet investments are "a bubble," you're being had. If you believe that somehow it is "too late" for you to profit from investing in the Internet, you're wrong.
And if you think that somehow you can't do it, you're probably underestimating yourself.

You can't do it if you don't have money to invest--meaning money to risk. Web stocks are more volatile than others, and the sexy ones are considerably more expensive.

But if you have money to invest, can handle some stress and have time for some research, step up to the plate.

The growth of Internet-related stocks has been phenomenal, and even the most conservative projections for the growth of these businesses show that we are at the very early stages of development. And there are perfectly sensible ways to avoid the most risky Internet investments while still reaping the rewards.
