There's a new top dog, and it isn't recently-crowned national champion Duke. The Fortune 500 list for 2000 is out and Exxon Mobil has taken its place at the top, with retailer Wal-Mart in the second slot.

You might not know Larry Fuller's name, but his track record and recent moves merit some attention. Like most growth managers he loaded up on tech stocks last year until they made up nearly half of the broker-sold Merrill Lynch Fundamental Growth fund's portfolio. But he threw in the towel when a slowing economy started eating into tech shops' earnings and puncturing their lofty valuations. In the past two weeks he has started to slowly buy shares of tech companies again, but only selectively. What's he buying and why is he starting to buy now?

WorldCom joined the growing list of companies cutting their payrolls when it laid off roughly 7% of its workforce at the end of February. Since a December low, WorldCom shares have risen 41%. Will the company succeed in its turnaround efforts, and is the stock still a buy after its recent runup? (source: Forbes) http://www.forbes.com/2001/04/02/0402streetfight.html

The handset market is grinding to a halt as there are few reasons for consumers to upgrade to a new phone in the near future. Moreover, two of the three major players (Ericsson and Motorola) have looked like the two Stooges of late. Yet, there has been a bounce in the sector's stocks recently. Is there any good reason for it? (source: Red Herring) http://redherring.com/index.asp?layout=story&channel=20000002&doc_id=1370018537

This columnist takes a look at three tech stocks that he thinks are building a foundation for a rebound: Applied Materials, Novellus and Dell.

This columnist feels that, if you are looking to nibble into tech at these prices, AMD might be ready for a bite or two. He claims the chipmaker has been dominating Intel in all facets of the game, and that the P/E is lower to boot. (source: TheStreet.com) http://www.thestreet.com/comment/techsavvy/1355682.html

It's a truism of investing that you have to take on more risk to win higher returns, but mixing the right assets in a diversified portfolio is one way to defy conventional wisdom. (source: MoneyCentral) http://moneycentral.msn.com/articles/invest/careful/6283.asp

How much tech should you own? Though many investors in 2000 wish that they had never heard the word, technology has a place in every portfolio -- no sector, after all, provides more growth potential. But with growth comes risk, so you've got to be careful with how you structure your tech holdings. Money takes a look at some of the key industries to choose from when putting together a smart tech portfolio. http://www.money.com/money/depts/investing/techportfolio/index.html (source: Money)


Ever wondered what if would feel like to be a Wall Street analyst and issue stock ratings on the Internet sector? Dotdoomed.com lets visitors do just that -- rate Internet stocks on a 1 to 5 scale according to how "doomed" they believe them to be. You can then compare your rating to the average rating given by other visitors to the site. The idea is to show investors how important perceptions can be when investing. http://www.dotdoomed.com

Today, the storage market is hot. With $13.5 billion in sales last year and an eye-popping 35 percent increase year-over-year, folks are paying attention. SANs (storage area networks) represent half that market and all of the growth. SANs may not be sexy, but this columnist explains why investors would do well to get interested.

After a few roller-coaster years, even the savviest of online players have found solace in hooking their wagons to the very business models they once decried as passe. As for investors, the bumpy online ride has offered a lesson most of them should have learned a long time ago -- diversify your portfolios and spread the wealth. Under the high-risk column, make some educated guesses, study the market, and continue to take some chances on dot-coms. Then, wait for the inevitable market correction.

Once upon a time it all seemed so simple for investors: Buy a tech stock, kick back, watch its value double. Then things changed. And investors learned to expect a completely different scenario: Buy a tech stock, fret, and watch its value fall by half--if you're lucky. The result: After a year of seeing one Nasdaq highflier after another crumble, most investors now think technology has all the appeal of a smelly sock puppet. But here's the news: Tech lives. But the Internet boom is going through a painful period of transition. Fortune's experts lay out niches to mine, as well as 16 stock picks (and four pans) that could pay off.
