Internet Stock Update: July 2005

Internet Stocks were up a strong 7.0% in July vs. the NASDAQ's 6.2% overall rise.  Amazon led the entire group, up a very strong 36.4% on strong Q2 earnings and an improved outlook.  Ebay also had a very strong month up 26.6% as its strong Q2 earning relived some worries that Google and high fees were hurting it's business.  The average stock was only up 4.7% indicating that large cap Internet stocks did particularly well.

There were no Internet IPOs in July, one of the few recent months without Internet IPO activity.
