>what did our noble leader do to cool the momentum players 18 months ago?

First, as the story is told, he was able to identify what was the cause of the run up. It was from a few big buys by some momentum players. Then he started calling the anal-ysts explaining the the run up was not warranted, etc. I do not know what happened next, but I would be willing to bet that the institutional folks started selling, making a profit, and bringing the price down. The price declined rapidly.

See the charts beginning in about October 96 through about January 96.
