I'm curious as to whether any of the analysts(should there happen to be any) who are employed by Brokerage firms that specialize in On Line Trading, (discount brokerage firms), ever issue downgrades of the stocks at a rate that is anywhere near the frequency and the severity of the downgrades, issued by analysts, employed by brokerage houses, that do not have "on line" trading programs. We all know many of the brokerage houses are not at all fond of "on line trading". They can't make anywhere as much of a killing on commissions, when one of their customers discovers on line trading, and decides to go with that sort of program. Can anyone remember when Schwabe, or other firms that do extensive on line trading, were involved in the severity of these type downgrades. I can't seem to. Something to think about at any rate. This has, at this point, gone entirely too far. Maybe part of the solution is..........BOYCOTT THESE FIRMS THAT ISSUE IRRATIONAL DOWNGRADES!!! Possibly they could use a dose of their own Medecine.
