Jeff, Who do you think are the honest ones and who has been flushed out?

Agree. However, there is probably a small percentage who are honest but who are continually being flushed out of the system Jeff, I take it you think Cohen did an exemplary job then? I must admit with all the conspiracy theories floating around I'm not quite sure what the job description of a MSDW analyst really is. But, if I were an investor with 20mm managed by MSDW and their analyst had a price target of $50 on the stock of the year, and I missed a 10 bagger or something because of it, I would say he should be fired for incompetance. I guess I want an analyst to tell me what the market thinks a stock is going to be worth, not what he personally thinks it is worth which is irrelevant, don't you agree? The fact is Amazon made it to $450 last year without the touting of all the analysts (a few yes but certainly not all), which tells you something doesn't it? Because to listen to you guys you would think the only reason these stocks ever go up is due to some star analyst upgrade.
