Diamond,

In prior years (and I assume it is still true), the number of daily posts on SI for a given stock was highly correlated with how overbought the stock was. The higher the number of posts, the closer to at least a temporary top.

As an amusement, count the number of posts for Iomega and see if you can find the top without looking at a chart. You'll be amazed.

I recall Jules G. complaining about the high number of posts on this thread in January, 1997, and I pointed out this correlation.

Best Trading,
X

PS I think the best stock posts on the net are currently on thestreet.com
