Those are my sentiments as well...It makes you wonder Could it be a little subtle market manipulation?

"I believe we are at the beginning upswing cycle" You're about six trading days late and we're going to see a fair-sized pop this morning. You'll be lucky to get in under 28. fido

<<When stocks get too expensive for the big boys to buy you will see negative reports on a particular business and analysts downgrading the affiliated stock. When the stock drops, the big boys accumulate and after they have their fill, you see positive reports on the particular business and soon after analyst upgrades. >> How very true !! Think about this...the big boys get to manipulate the stocks.....bring them down so they can buy, then hype them up so they can sell. I do not have the same power..the same means to manipulate anything. Why then, do fund managers show such piss poor results...I mean look at the big boys. How come my portfolio far exceeds the gains of any fund manager on wall street....Makes you wonder about the accounting methods used and the compensation for the fund managers...they make 100%, but only show 20% !!
