Soros, i know that much of the new debt was taken on to play the market...it's a very disturbing trend. people have thrown caution completely to the wind. no-one is doing any serious analysis of stocks anymore...a stock is mentioned on CNBS and it's up 10 points 5 seconds later. how much DD have those 'millions of informed investors' done at that point i wonder? it used to be that a stock was looked at by investors upon a buy recommendation by a WS analyst, and if they liked what they saw they may have decided to buy it in the ensuing days. usually a 'buy' rating barely budged a stock on the same day. nowadays, the so-called 'analysts' come out with some completely insane 12-month price target with flimsy reasoning only to see it bested on the very same day. can you spell MANIA? btw, i'd be a buyer at the levels you mention as well...if only for the reason that a 1/3 - 50% retracement rally could be expected were the NAZ to fall to that level. regards, hb
