Domain Stock Index Tracks Top 8 Domain Stocks
For those among us who invest in domain stocks, Domain Name Values Weekly has launched a Domain Stock Index which tracks the performance of eight stocks whose respective companies play a significant role in the domain industry.
The companies are Communicate.com, Inc. (CMNN.OB), Dark Blue Sea, Inc. (DBS), InterSearch Group, Inc. (IGO), Local.com, Inc. (LOCM), Marchex, Inc. (MCHX), Tucows Inc. (TCX), Verisign, Inc. (VRSN) and Yahoo! Inc. (YHOO).
The index is published on Monday, Wednesday and Friday at stock.dnvw.com. Since its inception on January 1, 2007 the index has a already increased 12.89%.
The Daily Domainer notes that Marchex stock is up 19.38% since reaching a low of $11.56 on January 17 when analyst William Morrison downgraded the stock from "Market Outperform" to "Market Perform" and predicted "a few quarters of rocky performance". Many stock investors do the exact opposite of what the majority of analysts tells them, and some of them have fared very well with this approach.
Interestingly, Communicate.com, Inc.'s corporate website is located at CMNN.com, even though they own Communicate.com as well which acts instead as a parked domain featuring PPC ads. That's a good sign of a company that puts profits above vanity.
+12.89%? +19.38%? Not too bad, but these stocks go up and down. If you bought Marchex a year ago you lost about 45%. It may be more profitable to invest in domains if you know what you're doing.
AdLINK, parent company of Sedo.com, should be part of the tracking, too
