Joana, I truly believe CNBC has helped with the decline in the Nasdaq. And Ron I. should just tell the guest what he would like them to say so he doesn't have to be so clever with his questions.
Since you don't have cable, you have missed the "make the news not report it" way CNBC has acted.
Here is the script for the past two days. Market manipulators contact CNBC and Maria and then try to dump the markets in the morning with a guru seeing the sky falling before the markets open. Then CNBC beats a dead horse all day long about how the sky is falling.
Yesterday with about a half hour to go, CNBC had Abby on with Maria and helped dumped the markets. Anyone sitting on a fence was given every reason why they should sell.
Today, Ron has Mark Mobius on the phone from Europe with a half hour to go!! This was some of the worst "reporting" I have ever seen in my life. Honest, it was that bad.
Mark M. said he had concerns about some South American internet stocks with no profits and Ron repeats it back but somehow we are now talking about companies in the United States. You would think Mark M. just put a sell on AOL and YHOO if we were not listening to what Mark said and just Ron.
I'd like Ron to ask Mark M., are you talking about TRRA, YHOO, or who? I think we know the answer.
CNBC should just let Joe K. tell jokes during the last half hour and let the gurus guru to themselves. CNBC- "We don't report the news, we try to make it"
Wanna see something really funny on a day like this? AOL made up for their GNET corn futures mistake. The front page of AOL PF has a link with news about go2net. It takes you here aol.multexinvestor.com
Nice to see someone point out the GO, GOTO and GNET confusion.
What a LOL and what a fun day, BLUE

Another omen...

Just sitting here surfing and guess what comes on the radio. David Bowie singing:

"I think my spaceship knows which way to go..."

"Ground Control to Major Tom..."

Love it!
