Bill Miller flew through the 1990s with stamina unmatched by anyone else managing mutual funds. We don't think so. Miller boldly found ways to bring technology and Internet issues under the umbrella of undervalued stocks. Such flexibility will serve him well in the decade just beginning and is the reason his new fund, Legg Mason Opportunity, joins our honor roll of nine stock funds worthy of your attention in this new millennium. Going forward, it's clear that you should make a place among your investments for technology stocks.
Nobody really knows.
That's why in fashioning a list of funds admirably suited for the times, we avoided extreme plays, such as Internet sector funds. Instead, we sought funds that exemplify all of the broad currents at work in the stock market. The ninth is Miller's brand-new fund. Our fund choices are tilted toward the pursuit of fast-growing companies. That's because technology is causing changes all across the business landscape, creating huge companies that didn't exist a decade ago and spawning more.
