>Of course, there still were a few brave bulls among the analysts. Lauren Cooks Levitan, a senior Internet analyst at Robertson Stephens, says she hasn't changed her view on her favorite Internet stocks, including Priceline.com, Amazon, eToys and Webvan Group.

She says she can't put her personal money into stocks that she covers, but that Tuesday, she bought Nasdaq-100 Trust, Series I stock, essentially a tracking stock for the Nasdaq 100. Says Ms. Levitan: "It's a bet that the Nasdaq doesn't stay like this for long."

10 percent! What a couple of Thieves. Take this as a lesson.

If memory serves, ML allows analysts to buy an amount up to 5% of their portfolio value in any single stock they cover with a positive opinion and with no near-term expectation of upgrading. The analysts can usually sell only after a downgrade. Based on what I observed, some analysts had a lot more freedom than others.
