On margin investments, you must be aware that brokerages will take out people who buy on margin $6.5 stocks. Margin calls will be issued in the morning, if stock dipped below $5. It certainly doesn't happen by accident. This is the worst sin by a new investor compare to "stop loss order" investors, who get their portfolio taken from them at a loss.

Many Yahoo board writers, who are without experts to guide them, are fully invested on margin. With the risk they take, no wander they will be crude when they write to each other. Sad but true.
