Giraffe,

Here's a fair question:

What happens to these net stocks if a general recession hits the US?

Internet Stocks

Is really not an issue. They are no different than Gambling stocks in the 70's or airline stocks in the 80's. What is different is the ease and cheap means of purchase. The stock market today is totally different than any time in history. Mainly due the technology available to discuss the market like (S.I.) and many other sites and the t/a software to plot it and track it, e.t.c... Everyone keep looking for a reason why it can't continue and seem to overlook the obvious. This time it really is DIFFERENT.

regards
Don

anybody expected? What if it turns out that the reason tech is going up is because the earnings are going to explode?"<<

If true......these earnings that are coming, 90% will be market share from current companies. Have they been going down in price ??
