The last one was in the 90's not 2000.

As for your speculation the dot.com bust was a huge impact on stocks, but it never was a major employer as far as I know. I read of thousands of people laid off in Alabama and the Mobile Area over the past few years. None had a thing to do with dot.coms. Most of the nationwide news was on factories as well.

It is a good question, but I don't believe dot.coms were responsible for most of the 90s job growth nationwide. I would guess a few to 10% boost 20% at the absolute maximum. California on the other hand is a different story.

Regards,
Mark
