My favorite two Internet stocks:

Safeguard Scientifics (SFE): Equity owner in over 30 public and private Internet companies, underlying asset value about $150/share, selling at about a 40% discount. Recently announced an IPO program that will distribute shares of new Internet IPOs to shareholders, not figured in above asset valuation. At the announced rate of five IPOs a year, this raises the above valuation, as well as the implied valuation discount.

Southwest Securities (SWS): Owns MyDiscountBroker.com as well as 1.7 million shares of Knight/Trimark (NITE) the clearing firm for most on-line brokers.

PE= 22 versus 116 for Schwab, 348 for Ameritrade and NA for E-Trade.

Price/Sales 1.58, versus 16 for Schwab, 35 for Ameritrade and 35 for E-Trade.

Price/Book 3, versus 33 for Schwab, 70 for Ameritrade and 19 for E-Trade.

Trebor, I guess that's what happens when I try to drag myself kicking and screaming to the party. BTW, I have a lousy memory and I'm trying to figure out who you metamorphed from. You got a hint so I don't have to throw away months or years of stereotypes I may have formed <g>

Trebor,

Man! I cannot thank you enough for your sluthing on OTEX.

Right now, though, I don't know whether to be really relieved for mark--He's Saved! Or, maybe I should worry about him more because he's been trying to puff himself with tales of internut stock purchases that aren't really true.

I need a drink....

Ciao,
David Todtman
