Mike and others, on the end of market bubbles....

I've heard it mentioned you've been through several investment mania time periods, with biotech being a recent boom/bust. I, unfortunately, wasn't tuned into the market during those time periods.

For context, I'm thinking of the internet stocks.

1. How quickly, in general, does a generic bubble burst?

2. Do the major stocks fall as far and as fast as the smaller stocks?

3. Does the broader market trade independently, or would a bubble bursting in internet stocks be expected to take the entire market down?

4. Biotech specific: What brought them down, and how quickly did it happen. How long did the bubble last?

Thanks for any comments from the thread.

Shane

Ever heard of the British biotech named GW Pharmaceuticals? It seems to me that it's almost guaranteed to get higher.<G>
