Uh...that might be true, unless you were invested in companies that DO have a future after 2000. Who would that be? CBSL, MAST, KEA, ACLY, IMRS, CDO, CPWR, TPRO, CA, CHRZ, ...to name a few of the most obvious. Besides, are you trying to say that there aren't enough momentum players who would salivate at the chance to play some of these stocks even for short term gain?

Skeptic- How did US oil company stocks perform during the Oil Crisis in the 70's? The Year 2000 companies will be one of the few investment areas that will provide a growth opportunity for investors prior to the crisis we all agree is imminent. You also discount the idea that these companies will continue to provide services after 1/1/00. I believe that the damage control/cleanup stage of this marketplace will be very profitable for savvy Y2K companies. I also believe that many of these companies will also have significant cash reserves to implement diversification/acquisition strategies prior to a decline in their Y2K revenues. Smart money isn't always so smart..... nobody knows what the future will hold....but lets hope the future isn't chaos..... Tech Master
