<But I would still buy EBAY at $135 - $140, P/E of 1000 and all, before I spend a dime on EGRP over $18-19 a share...why? > Why? Because you don't know how to assess risk? Because you have no regard for the underlying value of a company? Because you are the master trader that can get in and out before the house of cards falls? Because you can buy high and sell to the next fool higher? Give me a frigging break from this baloney. I don't give a crap if you short EGRP to zero. It's your choice. But it is high time for you to stop espousing this unfactual, unsupportable, sell at the lows, pile into the highest of the high fliers, ignorant bullshit. Sadly you might just be causing someone who knows no better and who can't afford the risk to follow your ill-advised, in and out, skirt and dodge the danger, damn the torpedoes, risk filled idea of investing 101. If you are in the Army, you are a total disgrace to their honor.
