Here is WSJ again. Debbie is NOT in good company.
Robert, I admit to bumping into solid objects while not watching where I was going [in my younger days] due to being distracted by important matters involving gender.

My sympathies.

Incidentally, on gender, men should be hugely compensated and testosterone levels should be treated as a special disability necessitating government financial assistance. Look at the huge proportion of men in prison - that is direct evidence for the damaging effects of their inadequate gender that men have to live with and cope with.

Melanin-rich people get special favours because they are overly represented in bad circumstances. Well, check out the male population!!! That makes melanin-rich people's problems a joke! Males die young, are jailed 20:1 compared with females. They kill themselves much more often. They drink their sorrows into oblivion...etc, etc, etc...

Meanwhile, if she's worried about manipulation, she should check out her employer's comments from unidentified sources who don't even bother using a screen name, let alone a real one.

Ninja Dancer cited an unidentified source:
<The Asian Wall Street Journal said the Chinese company, known as Unicom, has no plans to build a CDMA network and that its executives believe it's unwise to do so, citing an unidentified investment banker and people close to the company.>

Investors should NOT take ANY notice of anything written by that possibly illegally manipulative Wall Street Journal which is at best loose with facts and seems ill-disposed to anything to do with CDMA. Those guys are suspect.

They are trying to hurt investors and blatantly admit that they have not identified their alleged source.

Q! investors have obviously been hurt by the story and perhaps illegally so. There have been $$billions wiped off Q! market capitalisation and perhaps those suffering investors should hire lawyers or contact the SEC to see whether there has been illegal stock manipulation by the WSJ.

PS: On China, I don't see anything wrong with people haranguing China about their plans, attitudes, threats to Taiwan, action in Tibet, human rights etc. If Jiang Zemin doesn't like it, too bad! He can take a running jump. If they don't want to buy CDMA, too bad! We can sell CDMA while telling them what we think of them. They tell us what they think of us. They are threatening to blow up people in Taiwan who are producing CDMA equipment. That is not acceptable to me. If they try it, they'll regret it. If they want to buy CDMA from me, that's fine too. I'll keep buying their stuff [as long as they watch their manners]. As SurferM points out, the USA is not a great big Free Trade love-in where all is political harmony and libertarian freedom. Americans aren't even allowed to buy sheep from New Zealand. People are threatened with legal action for discussing dehypothecation and suggesting Memorial Day to do it.

Robert, I think my comment wasn't clear <Good grief Robert, you are obviously NOT an engineer. The engineer's song includes a line about Godiva riding a horse and "...the only one who noticed was an engineer of course".>

I should have said "...the only one who noticed that Godiva rode a horse, was an engineer, of course." Everyone noticed Godiva, but it was the horse-noticing which took the engineer's attention to detail and practical ability, while all others were bedazzled and jaw-dropped by the naked beauty of Godiva.

PS: Was Carrie better looking than Ramsey Su? You probably saw him on the cover of Money Magazine a few months ago, grinning smugly, full of Wealth Effect. I dare say he is now a slimmer version with a tendency towards Poverty Effect, though he probably cashed up before his latest vacation, which caused the Daddy of all Su Vacation Effects so he might be grinning even more happily now, picking up all the bargains with his ill-gotten gains. Geez, he manipulates the whole damn Nasdaq and takes out a chunk of the Dow too, makes a fortune and I get prosecuted by WSJ.com and Carrie Lee while losing a fortune.
