Blue, when the Manips push the edge of the envelope like they're doing - seems like they don't much care if they risk killing the goose that lays the golden egg or not. And many of them would have no reason to care either - they don't make money in the same ways the folks they're hurting make theirs in the market. It's Rotten and It's Scary how easy they're getting away with it. The Manips got some Brass Bold Nerve to blame this on Microsoft for lack of anything better to point to (and that's the Good News...) Probably that was as good a starting point as any til something else comes along which so far hasn't - so for how long can the blatant hyping of their own effects be good enough to keep this mess going?
We're in a pretty good spot here. Knowing more about what's causing this is better than (how many are?) holding mutual funds on automatic pilot and wondering what's wrong with the economy.
Looks Like A Double Whammy Now - A Real Mean Margin Call Manip and Taxtime Shakeout Combo - Taking It To The Edge.
So today the Krispy Kreme IPO is the big news ... and of course newsblubberings say it's the scared-of-the-net investors who all bought into it. I'd like to know, how would they know that? It's like they're saying "Take a flying leap into a rolling doughnut" - grrrr I'm mad.
Been here before, and here now again. Gambling the same thing will happen as has happened before when this phenomena happens...... while others think differently having the same information.
Keeping my fingers crossed under that duck tape.....
