>>>Anyone into Y2K stocks. They are really starting to move the last few weeks? The closer we come to 2000 the more the rates will go up. Craig I don't follow them but you are the second one I've seen bring it up. Kal who posts here said he was making good money. Just remember what you told us, before. About buying, you should have sold instead. Why don't you go back and find his name and ask him where's he at. 'like is he doubling?' One thing I might suggest....is simply this.....If you where going to build a house, you would need to get the tools to build it. Right? Try this if you want to build your portfolio investorinsight.com I use it to track about 70 stocks in various segments of the Tech Market. I get from it some of the tools I'm building my portfolio with.

Hello To All, Been lurking on this thread for a few weeks now. Been very interested in, and, at times, enlightened by the posts. Have a long position in SEEK. And have, at various times, been frustrated with their "interesting" PR moves, i.e., bungles, and seeming inability to keep pace with the pack. But, that said, I like the product (though not crazy about Olympics piece of the puzzle, either), know for certain that they offer terrific value to their advertisers (better engine for targeting, yielding better click-through rates), have researched some of the technology behind the technology, i.e., Aptex (a division of HNC Software), and will be meeting with SEEK company representatives in a couple of weeks... at which time, I'll post anything newsworthy. I'm not blindly in love with this or any stock. And I am a little concerned about the short-term (though that's not my play) what with nothing evident to buoy price. (I don't count the Soros investment in the SEEK spin-off because that's gonna take a while to payoff). Anyway, just wanted to say, "hey". Resume full lurking position, cm

Craig, I know what you mean about bad timing. January '97 I bought NSCP at 47 and rode her all the way down, TWICE, before selling at the bottom. In order to buy NSCP, I sold all my AOL at 36; today it is at 110. I think SEEK is a good three year hold. I have yet to loose on SEEK (even thought I did buy 25% of my position at 13 3/4 :( ) Maybe SEEK is not rising because we are both holding!!?? (ha! ha!) grasshopper p.s. What is a year 2000 stock? A company that fixes that problem all the short sighted idiot programmers of decades past created by not accounting for the millenium digit flip?
