Brian,
does CMGI have to announce every time it sells stock of publicly traded companies in its portfolio? What are rules for that?

Thanks,

-DiB

Possible upside factors:

1. Earnings release on Dec. 15
2. split announcement
3. inclusion in S&P500

Why I think CMGI will be included in S&P? Because it's the best candidate in Internet stocks. I can think of some other candidates with comparable market caps: AMZN, EBAY, ICGE. But ICGE is too new, AMZN has never made a cent, and EBAY is too small in terms of revenue. So, I bet CMGI is going to be a S&P500 stock very soon, unless S&P doesn't like any more internet stock. When that happens, we're gonna see real buyings from the $600B index funds, as what is happening to YHOO.

Enjoy the ride!
