Monster Of A Value? Jobs Are Picking Up, MNST Up 7% So Far from Sept. 7

Online job service Monster (NASDAQ:MNST) leads the gainers in the Watchlist, up 7% to $7.58 per share since being picked. Steve Harmon believes that a relative valuation could be the fuel behind the move, since MNST appears to be the largest pure play job service online that's still independent.

Doubleclick (NASDAQ:DCLK), a leading ad network, continues to hold Harmon's interest. If investors want to go out and pay $27 billion for Google and it's basically just an ad network with a search front end, DCLK looks cheap at $663 million. Sure, Doubleclick isn't a consumer brand but it's one of the top ad networks online.

Harmon is waiting to see what FindWhat (NASDAQ:FWHT) will do to ratchet and focus on paid inclusion/paid search in a world dominated by Yahoo and Google. MSN (1) (MicroSoft Network) A family of Internet-based services from Microsoft, which includes a search engine, e-mail (Hotmail), instant messaging (Windows Live Messaging) and a general-purpose portal with news, information and shopping (MSN Directory).  hasn't made a big move in paid search, and as the #2 web network in the world, Harmon wonders when it will wake up and smell the business model.
