I agree that the government and worse still, the judge, times their announcements to cause maximum havoc with the stock price. It is indeed a sad time. However, the public doesn't see this outrage. So, it will continue. This is nothing, it is just money. Look at what they did in Miami; granted the boy should have been returned to the father, but how should one do it ? Not the way they did it - Shades of Waco, what were they going to do with the show of force ? imagine if there really was a gun and by mistake an agent was shot, the whole house would have been decimated. Was the public outraged ? NO - I submit that in these times the public generally accepts the government propaganda completely. The success stories of the country are brought down - SO WHAT ?? Bill lost a bunch of money, I lost only some, but he lost SO MUCH, should be fine - no ? and the drama continues...

Frank, Gates hasn't been handed anything and that's why I am betting on him. I viewed the announcement the same way you did. Anyone waiting to see a price below $64 will have to wait for some other bombshell. I'm not too sure there are any left! I hope all those political morons who thought this was such a good idea had their portfolios smashed to hell like many out there. I bet some of them are now second guessing the approach that was taken. Jackson's arrogance will come back to haunt him, trust me! Sabre!
