You never know what the evil Wexler is up to though; he's probably Gates in disguise trying to manipulate MSFT stock!

I think the GUMM longs have been snorting something stronger than Zicam lately. Or maybe they are just hyperventilating from their near-brush with legitimate academic publishing.

Yeah, I thought that was funny too.

Lets say Bill has a full 250 people who absolutely do everything he tells them.

And lets say that every one of them can buy 1000 shares.

I'm guessing that'll account for about the first minute of trading this morning.

So if MSFT moves up for about a minute, it's Bill. Or maybe not. <g>

Long the stock, long Nov, Dec, Jan calls (out of money, not a whole lot to lose), not particularly worried.

You are way off base. Wexler is widely read and his posts have affected all the 100 million shares traded so far in MSFT today. Wexler is so influential that $9 BILLION (wow, is that right? $9 billion?) worth of MSFT shares have traded so far, and every one of those investors were influenced in some way by Bill's post. Eddy has it right, don't you Eddy?
