Rande, they are not analysts, they are investment banking salesman. Now, what they have done, and by them I mean the big houses on the street, is erode confidence, and like fiat money, once it is lost, good-night....
Which brings me to another point. My wife and I were talking about YHOO last night, and she asked why and how they could halt trading in it all day.

Her reply was real simple, "then it's all just a manipulation, isn't it??"
