NEW YORK, April 5 (Reuters) - It has become a tale of two Internets: YHOO reported on Wednesday first-quarter profits tripled while two lesser Internet names warned of steeper losses. For even as Yahoo said its first-quarter sales doubled and profits more than tripled, Internet magazine Salon.com cautioned of sharper losses and Web software retailer Beyond.com warned of a larger restructuring charge. In another sign of selectivity, investors piled into the stocks of suppliers of the underlying software and equipment used to operate the electronic medium while shunning second- and third-tier Internet retail and media network sites. ``Some of the smaller internet stocks that don't have a defensible market position and that are losing money will go all the way to zero or will be acquired at very low fire-sale prices,' Robert Burgoyne, technology strategist for Internet investors Monument Funds Group, said of the digital divide. Cash-strapped CDnow, an ailing Internet music retailer, continued to slide, dipping 11/32 to 3-5/8, down from a year high of 23, while Peapod, slipped another 1/4 to 3. By contrast, Yahoo said its audience grew 20 million in the past three months to 145 million users, driving up advertising and electronic commerce sales. It boasted that cash-on-hand grew $214 million to $1.175 billion and it has no debt. ``Our results in the first quarter continue to demonstrate that we have created a global service that resonates with users and a business with inherent self-reinforcing scale from which strong financial results can be derived,' Yahoo Chief Executive Tim Koogle said in a statement announcing its results. Henry Blodget, lead Internet analyst with brokerage Merrill Lynch, has argued for the past year that up to 75 percent of Internet companies ``will never make money and will eventually disappear, either through consolidation or business failure.' ``Technology is really a winner-take-all business,' said Burgoyne of Bethesda, Md.-based Monument Funds. ``Being No. 2 is really way, way behind being No. 1, and being anything less just puts you way down in the noise,' he said. Thus, while many Internet-related companies have fallen well off their share price highs, investors are increasingly flocking to those companies seen as likely winners in their market sectors.

Yhoo is one of the "cream of the crop stocks". I have doubled my money or better every time I bought it in less than a year. You tell me whats wrong with that or better yet give me a stock that will out perform those returns. I heard all the gloom and doom for too many years. I'am not playing with the rent money. What are you guys buying thats so dam good? If you want to make serious money then you better get use too risk because they go hand and hand my friend. JB
