Randy Ellingson You said :Rate increase by Fed might really kill these stocks.But it's not likely to kill the companies behind these stocks, or their growth. In rising interest rates and falling incomes people will buy the cheapest products = tax-free + midddleman-free from Internet= rising Internet Companies stock prices. Think, cyberspace WallMart, without the overhead, TA

5 years? CSCO for sure although it needs to pullback a bit. MSFT will always be a rule maker. I am looking at IDTC and it looks really good although there isn't much past to verify its capacity to execute in the future. There are a lot of companies which have limited competition and have high margins. For AMZN, you and I are competitors and can open up a shop right on YHOO for $100 per month. Extremely low margin business. E-Commerce is a great place to invest, but not at these levels where the stocks are trading at where they should be trading 5 years down the road. That said, I may buy AMZN at $160 five years down the road. It might be fairly valued by then if it executes its plans well.
