<<here we have THREE stocks, all tracking closely.>> Tracking closely? I don't see any such thing. Sure there are peaks and valleys in about the same places - but MRVC dropped from +1200% on your graphs to about +300% while the others only dropped from +500% to +300%. The overall market was pretty sh*tty just then, wasn't it? But MRVC "corrected" worse than most stocks. But that isn't the point of the article - and your post didn't address it at all. It must just be me, because in my experience when these posters come out of the woodwork or from under the rocks, MRVC always begins a significant move down. Then when the "droves" disappear, the stock moves up. This is a nice leading indicator to help my trading. How do you explain all the "new" (with recent create dates) IDs on Yahoo! that suddenly appear? I know you've used a few aliases yourself on occasion, right? But their arrival, departure and posting is seemingly (to me anyway) too coordinated to be "just the market, nothing more nothing less" as you say. The way to get some data on this is to make a note when we first notice the thread bashers arriving and the stock price and direction, then when we notice they have left and the stock price and direction. For example, here is one from Yahoo! first posted on MRVC on 7/27 (hey wasn't that after earnings?) and posted 59 negatives in a week. I think this poster just adds or subtracts an "e" over time search.mb.yahoo.com
