| Wednesday Dec 20, 2000 | The tech-heavy Nasdaq composite index slid more than 7% today to its lowest level in almost two years. The returns on my equity investments have been embarassing this year. I think it's time to apply the modern portfolio theory pioneered by Nobel Prize winner Harry Markowitz to diversify my portfolio to include alternative investments. Before circumstances beyond my control force me to take on a second job because more of my investments lay an egg, maybe I'll just sink my dough into this. to Finance by rich |

| Friday Jun 18, 1999 | As many of you know, webzine Salon.com is
offering a 2.5 million share IPO to raise some desperately needed cash. What's
unusual is that they are offering the deal not through conventional IPO shops like
First Boston or Goldman Sachs
but the newly-formed boutique W.R. Hambrecht & Co
and employing Hambrecht's unconventional IPO pricing mechanism called a
Dutch Auction. Although the Dutch Auction is hailed as an equalizing process that allows
non-institutional investors to acquire shares at the offering prices, detractors suggest that
allowing the hoi polloi to bid away the typical first-day runup of hot IPOs will
kill significant demand from the speculators and momentum traders that flock to money-losing Internet
IPOs in the first place.

| TheStreet.com is one of the better financial sites with a great mix of timely news and insightful, unbiased commentary.
