At one time I used to feel that "The ones that will fall the most will be the ones that have led the most in this most recent run," but statistical studies haven't backed that notion up. The stocks performing well tend to hold up well and are usually the first to rebound. However, in a sector kill, for example oil over the last few years, one can see an implosion of value and expectations that create great opportunities on the long side... though buying a falling knife is tricky. The internet/computer/telco growth hasn't abated, pc sales are strong, the roi and efficiency gains are still excellent therefore I don't expect to see a massive implosion.
