couldn't you just plunk down the $300,
I know a clueless investor who had about 60 grand. He plunked down his $300 about 2 years ago, Bought equal dollar amounts of everthing Gilder mentioned, and is now a well to do clueless investor. Will that performance hold now that the secret is out? I don't know.

I have to admit that you're exactly right ... the Gilder Newsletter has become a way for some people to make some quick cash just on the hype alone ... there are so many people who just follow what he says ... and I can't blame them. He's been a very accurate "recognizer of ascendent technologies" for quite some time ...

I think they tend to pop quickly ... the correction sometimes happens slightly or not at all. I think a lot of people hold the stocks until the companies slip from the list ...

Yep ... if you get in quickly, there will no doubt be the jump as everyone buys "what George points at" ...

I think you are right on target, and that many people have learned to invest in the way you describe ... purely buying on the "Gilder-effect" ... ;-)
