Amid The Turbulence, Hopeful Signs

The Fall Internet World Trade Show is wrapping up this week in New York, and it has been a depressing experience. Attendance is down, and the general mood runs from subdued to dispirited to desperate, depending on your funding situation. There’s a hangover feeling, which seems appropriate as this sobering year for ‘Net investors staggers toward its finish.

Ironically, at the exact same time that an aura of gloom was enveloping the show, Internet stocks turned in their strongest performance in months, with 12 of sectors gaining this week. The bottom barely hinted at last week may finally be here. Indeed, the tremendous volatility seen even within one day’s trading during the past week is another sign, since a market turnaround usually is a messy affair.

Be wary, however, for much of the upward thrust in some of this week’s highest gaining sectors – yes, I mean Advertising/Marketing and E-tailers in particular – comes from stocks bouncing their way toward new lows. And when you bounce, sometimes you go up. Because of my Internet World schedule, my comments below are brief. But as usual, all the numbers are here.

*Market Cap figure is in millions unless otherwise noted.

Chinadotcom buys a British Internet consultancy, while portal giants
Yahoo! and Lycos appear to be stabilizing after hasty trips south
over the past month. With the cellar-dweller here off only 4.4%,
this sector has the lighest downside of the bunch for the week.

Even with a number of tickers bouncing hard off new bottoms, this
sector manages to be the only loser this week. Cnet Networks doubles
its revenues for Q3 and turns in a net profit, after goodwill 
amortization and other costs, of 7 cents per share. EarthWeb
revenues and gross margins climb, while net loss shrinks.

B2B e-commerce incubator Internet Capital Group is planning a national
advertising campaign designed to turn around its free-falling stock by
helping investors better understand its business model. In attributing
its steep decline in part to investor confusion, ICGE is taking a page
from CMGI. But at least CMGI is taking tangible steps through a massive
reorganization and streamlining of business divisions. CMGI CEO
David Wetherell also says his company has dramatically slowed its
cash-burn rate through layoffs in recent months.
