This is so funny. CNBC is running the netscape rumor as the lead story every half hour. I'm watching a realtime chart of the stock, and about 3 minutes after they re-state the rumor, tons of little orders come in and the price jumps. Then big sell orders come in right behind them and force the price down.. (short sellers or just plain selling) Then half an hour later, CNBC repeats the rumor and the cycle begins again with fresh suckers. The charts and CNBC coincide EXACTLY! And who says CNBC can't move markets.. reminds me of the old Dan Dorfman days.. didn't he leave under a cloud of investigation for hyping stocks that his friends owned?
