I'm not talking about two years ago. I'm talking about a decade or so ago when the Economist did not have shall we say quite as high of an opinion of companies like INTC and MSFT. Those that ignored the Economist and bought in back then have done very well. Because the Economist pats the likes of INTC, MSFT and CSCO on the back two years ago when the outcome is know should not impress anyone. This underscores my point. The Economist couldn't differentiate the wheat and chaff of High Tech closer to the beginning when it really counted and they expect me and other investors to pay attention to their internet dribbel piece. They don't get it now but around 2009 they will write articles about what great companies AOL or Amazon or Yahoo and whoever else are. Are you planning to sit on the sidelines and wait a Decade for the Economist to give its blessing to Inet stocks?
