This member is the original thread starter. GOOG and YHOO

Hello. I'm interested in holding a position in GOOG or YHOO. Anybody got any advice on them?

GOOG is a good company. Their chart looks ok. They had a big drop in early November but seems to me it is economy related. They are going into the cell phone business, so I expect their stock to rise on that. Other than that they are the #1 search engine provider. They are agressive and are making good moves. So I think GOOG is my number one pick right now but I was wondering what you guys thought.

YHOO is not all that. But they are the #2 name in search and there is rumor that Microsoft will buy them out, which would be great for the stock. I think of them as the Pepsi and GOOG the Coke, and you know Pepsi was one time not all that either.

So these are the two companies I'm interested in. But I was wondering how they will behave if the economy continues to decline. Seems to me GOOG is best positioned to weather a bad economy.
