Thank you all for your CNBC comments. I feel better now. I wish there were a show that was about investments but was more educational and objective. The country could use a more intelligent show. Many are ready to really soak up real knowledge. We could have Vendit explain candlesticks! And Steeny do color commentary.

To those of you who are getiing hurt with the recent price moves: There is no shame in buying puts to protect yourselves. I am not sure if we hit a bottom yesterday or not. Options were created for just this scenario- to protect investors' major positions. If AOL recovers, you would only lose the premium you paid for the options. Your upside is still unlimited. Just my 2 cents.

Internet Fund Managers Let Their Buying Do the Talking But if that's a traditional rearview indicator, the moves of the Internet managers Wednesday, following four straight days of losses in the sector, could signal things are changing. All four Internet managers TSC interviewed Wednesday say they're buying -- at least selectively. The TSC Internet index was up 4% Wednesday. While he wouldn't talk about new names in his portfolio, Alexander Cheung of the $50 million Monument Internet fund says he is adding to existing positions in RealNetworks (Nasdaq:RNWK - news) , Securities First Technologies (Nasdaq:SONE - news) and America Online (NYSE:AOL - news) because their battered prices now look like bargains. fnews.yahoo.com
