I agree that there's too much easy money (from the lenders) out there. But would you prefer that Mary had used her credit card checks to buy a big screen TV and a trip to Acapulco. That would be foolish spending with little to show for it. At least she purchased a good stock at a good price.

On a different level, the stock market is one big house of mirrors (always has been,always will be). What the heck are we buying anyway?
Did you happen to catch the comparison in Forbes between Boston Chicken and Amazon.com ? It was humorous and thought provoking.

Thanks everyone for the answer on the quiet period. No company is quiet after the quiet period ends.

Ahhaha,
As an example a friend of mine who is not crazy(normally),is an attorney and takes care of business has $60,000. in credit card debt incurred to buy stocks. I would have a hard time sleeping.
