Time to start setting up positions for the June Net rally IMHO. Don't know if we'll bottom out tomorrow or not, but should over the next week or so.

Net Stocks Push Nasdaq Lower With Late-Day Selloff

SAN FRANCISCO -- It's too bad that Alan Greenspan and Bob Rubin didn't misread the topic for their testimony to the House Banking Committee earlier today. We would rather have heard them talk about Internet finance issues rather than the international finance issues they attacked with vigor.

The point is that there now is a lack of news in a sector that is in constant need of good news to keep investors encouraged about paying outrageous sums of money for companies that have out-of-this-world valuations and may not produce profits until well into the next millennium. Internet stocks were mostly weaker today, and the sector appears to be lacking a focus -- but that could change quickly.


Bruce Smith, Internet analyst with Jefferies said he's telling people "they should be buying now," in advance of what should be a strong seasonal period for Net stocks. Having studied an index of Internet stocks over the past 13 months, he's determined that the third month of every quarter is a big one for Internet stocks and that June should follow that pattern.

It should be noted, though, that Smith uses mainly the biggest and most successful of the Internet companies, including America Online (AOL:NYSE), Yahoo! (YHOO:Nasdaq) and @Home (ATHM:Nasdaq), though some of the smaller Net companies like Egghead.com (EGGS:Nasdaq) and Onsale (ONSL:Nasdaq) also are included.

Smith said you will begin to hear talk about second-quarter earnings in June, and he is looking for strong numbers that have the potential to be "blowout numbers." In addition, he said there are a number of technology conferences scheduled for June that will provide a steady news flow. Smith also said he is not overly concerned with valuations, explaining that during the "hypergrowth phase" that Internet stocks are going through, "looking at valuations tends to be wrong
