Heisenberg Corollary?

The more precisely the POSITION is determined, the less the MOMENTUM is known .... Werner Heisenberg

Just as the act of observation changes the event in physics, does a horde of analysts (professional and amateur) probing at a companies innards affect a stock's behavior %-)...

fair enough...always handy to have a scapegoat!<vbg> i say find as much research as possible and form YOUR OWN opinions (whether that's macro or micro--stock specific or for your overall account). i've always believed an informed investor has always been my best client.

i can tell you, in the majority of cases, i've been much happier when i disseminate the info than when i've listen to "someone else" in making my final investment decisions.... of course, i do have the luxury of doing this for a living and have a tremendous amount of info at my fingertips (literally).

now, if you find someone to do the due dilligence for you and has a successful track record, by all means, use your time more wisely! <G> heck, if everyone had the time and expertise to "do it on their own", i'd be out of a job!

in summary, i was quoting sector, and also doing my own little disclaimer, as i don't want to be giving specific security investment advice online....btw, this is in no way a solicitation, and those i've corresponded with vouch for the fact i've never solicited business from this forum.
