CMGI: one of Steve Harmon's 10 top picks (his top pick):
_______________
Here's the link: fnews.yahoo.com

Here's the excerpt:
CMGI (NASDAQ:CMGI - news) . We believe this stock, more than any one other stock in this space, offers the best of what the Internet has to offer in its breadth and approach to the Internet. CMGI gets in early to future possible stars and then capitalizes on the arbitrage. Lycos (NASDAQ:LCOS - news) and GeoCities (NASDAQ:GCTY - news) are two examples.
Our CMGI outlook is one we've held since 1995 but it's much stronger in 1999 as its success has rolled out.

In our view, no other one Internet stock offers an entire array of Internet growth as efficiently. Money managers looking to dress up their boring blue chip portfolios with Internet stocks who don't have CMGI in their portfolios should retire, in our opinion.

Through its majority-owned startup investments, operating units and minority equity in its @venture venture side we believe CMGI shares may be severely undervalued, that this firm may be a Yahoo-like entity in its pioneering approach, value creation and critical mass of capital. We also like the fact that Microsoft and Intel own just under 5% of CMGI. Risks? if the IPO market dries up then its investments may not find liquidity as quickly as possible. Or if the stock market tanks then the same also applies. But overall short of having an ISDEX Mutual Fund (which we want to see), CMGI may represent a good proxy to the Internet in our opinion. Decide for yourself, see its Website, ask your broker

CMGI is still cheap compared to the likes of eBay and YHOO.....BTW,Lycos(LCOS)is also cheap

You've got that right, it is dirt cheap. I have been saying that for 150 points now and it is still true. Ebay especially is way overvalued in comparison to CMGI.

Happy and making a ton of $$ on CMGI, ATHM, LCOS, DRIV and a lot of other great stocks.

Regards,

KW Wingman

<LCOS is also cheap c/w YHOO>..CMGI owns 30% of LCOS, so CMGI will benefit from LCOS's strong rise that's in the cards. And this is only one aspect of CMGI's portfolio of exciting ventures.
Enjoy the ride!
