You can criticize the B2B list, but those are the stocks the investors who follow TheStreet.com chose -- they're the people's choice in the sector. cramer's personal portfolio is up about 1.5% for the year. i just got an offer to buy his letter at 50 or 60% off. the smart money does not follow tscm. even the smart newbies must be leaving him. if he was good, he would be raising prices not lowering them. jmho

OFF TOPIC Netstockfiend, I also posted here (and RB and Motley Fool) asking others to post Citrix as a nominee on TheStreet.com's board -- and NO ONE followed through. I saw your posts on this and the Fool thread. For the record, there are two reasons I didn't nominate Citrix. The first is that I don't think Citrix fits into the category of B2B in the way most people think of it, though I don't know the definition that was being used by Street.com. The second reason is that I would never nominate a stock for any meida list. Though I'm a long-term investor, getting a stock on this or that media fad list can help or hurt a stock in the short to medium term. In the short and long term, I'd prefer that the stock be a reflection of the company's fundamentals instead of the popularity lists. --Mike Buckley
