OT: I was wondering when you would notice MSFT, Gary. It hasn't let up since I picked some up in 1989. If you look at a logarithmic chart you will see it has appreciated more or less at a similar rate since then. Yes, it was slightly "lumpy" but overall the ride has been very constant. $10,000 invested then is worth over 1 1/2 M now. Lots of companies have surpassed MSFT's performance but none have done so as steadily. Of course you're so smart, you have probably been trading in and out of MSFT for years and are worth 30 or 40 million by now. BTW, I don't recall anyone saying that you could move markets. I know people exist that take personal satisfaction in discrediting people or stocks or governments. It's like a personal vendetta. I'm not saying you have one, I'm still waiting for you to collect that $25,000 prize. Bux
