"Just because you're in the crowd guarantees you're going to be cleaned. Busted. The stock market loves to take you little boys out permanently." What's with you, blowhard? I'm not a little boy and I'm not gonna be ...cleaned. Busted ...permanently" We're here to trade opinions and, with any luck, learn something; not to hope frantically for each others' demise. I'd hoped you'd take the hint about rudeness, but now that I picture you slavering over a keyboard, poisoning the airwaves with your bile, I realize there's reasons why you're alone and it's not just a skewed investment outlook. -fed up

"Just because you're in the crowd guarantees you're going to be cleaned. Busted." Let me see. All of a company's shares are owned by longs. Since all shareholders are long, they are a crowd. All companies are owned by longs (crowds), therefore, all companies will go bust. A freakin' genius that guy is. CF Rebel

ahhaha - could you explain your statement that GBLX "isn't high tech" and what sort of criteria you apply to stock to figure whether it falls into this category or not. For example, is DELL high tech (assemble computers inexpensively from components, make sure they work, put them into cardboard boxes, chuck in a couple of CDs and send them to people)? Or perhaps I'm one of the millions of people on the thread who will never be able to comprehend. ;) I Want To Believe. PS. You said: "Broadband is stifled. It can never work because physics of optics won't let it unless the world's people want to pay exorbitant rates for it" Now you're just whistling in the wind and tilting at windmills I'm afraid. Get back into the shallow end of the pool. Statements like that about "high tech" are dangerous cos they can come back and haunt you. Like the people who said that PCs would never need more than 10 megabtyes of storage. Or indeed the people who said that no one would ever buy a computer for their home. btw - on a completely unrelated note, when does SI get an Ignore Member option like they have over at RagingBull?
