NASDAQ INDEX!!!!!!!!!! ---- QQQ or NDX Look at the chart!!!! Gotta say a word or two about the Q's. We just LOVE this stock. It is the Nasdaq 100 all wrapped into one stock. How can you beat this deal? You get to buy a weighted index of 100 of the largest stocks on Nasdaq, which by definition are always the largest 100. In other words, if a stock fades in value because it can't compete, it is going to be replaced by an up and comer. So you end up with those stocks that are worth more each year. Microsoft is the biggest corporation in the world by market cap, so they are worth 14% of the index. Our Fab Five make up 40% of the index! Following is the weighting of the top 10 stocks in the index: Microsoft - 15% Cisco - 7% Intel - 9 MCI WorldCom - 5 Dell - 4% QualComm - 3% Oracle - 2% Nextel - 2% Amgen - 2% Yahoo - 2% Here's the whole list, right on the Nasdaq web site: dynamic.nasdaq-amex.com. Do yourself a big favor. Make it a goal to own 125 shares as soon as possible. Then after you reach that goal, double it. When you reach that goal, double it again. Fulfill this last one and you'll have your 1000 shares. Then you can relax and enjoy the fruits of your investment labors.
