Risky, Here is a quote from your above link that caught my eye: He says the question he gets asked most often is, "What are you going to do after the Year 2000?" . "But over the next two years there will be heavy demand. And it's not all going to get done by 2000." ÿ ÿ .

Re. New Y2k Mutual Fund: Mutual Funds Magazine: "Year 2000": mfmag.com Quote: "And now there's a mutual fund mfmag.com to help you play Y2K mania. HomeState Year 2000 (800-232-0224), which will invest primarily in Y2K companies, is expected to be available in late November. The fund's prospectus mfmag.com is loaded with red flags for investors. Under "risk factors," the prospectus notes: "The Year 2000 industry is, at present, an extremely narrow and potentially short-term industry. While companies in the same industry are often faced with the same obstacles, issues, or regulatory burdens, and their securities react similarly to, and move in unison with, these or other market conditions, companies in the Y2K industry will be especially susceptible to new technologies and processes developed by competitors or customers." It adds that business prospects could shrink a bit in Y2K+1. Undaunted, the fund identifies 92 companies as potential investments..." Conspiracy and mutual promise. --Sir T. More.
