IMO, this thread does not, and has not had the characteristics of a pump'n'dump thread in the time that I've been coming here. BTW, I short p'n'ds regularly. Barb

I think that question would best be directed to one of your chimpanzees. I also think that you are not asking a sincere question but are just looking to antagonize. No cyberabuse please.

You gotta be kidding, Robert. "Pump and dump"? This CKFR thread? This thread contains much more genuine investment research than I've seen on most threads. If some have been enthusiastic, it is IMO with good reason. Online banking and ebpp are gonna be big. "Really big". IMO. In spite of losing $4/shr the last time I tried to hold this stock, I'm now setting an order to load up again on Monday, at a better price. Then I'm going on vacation for a week. That's how bullish I am. (Edit: I forgot! Remember when CKFR last visited the $25 range, after the TEX announcement? It was then that I had set a GTC limit order to buy some CKFR for my IRA, at $25/shr. *I had forgotten all about that GTC order! Got filled on 8-05-99 at $25, right on the money. Gotta luv it.) The stock action is just stock action. Some investors got scared of the "big three" banks. As the smoke clears, I think we'll see CKFR still out front, leading the big dog pack. And I think the market will reward that with an increase in stock value. Might not be back above $40 until nearer the end of the year though, or even sometime next year. Or it might be sooner, who knows.
