>Sarmad, imo the difference between the new economy thread and this one (now) is that over there people at least try to understand what they are buying. Then do us a favor...stay on the new economy thread and leave us alone until we can understand what we're buying or selling.

Hi, >>You can get fundie info on the new economy thread but not here. << In my opinion, when the value of a business changes by $billions per day with no news, it can't be reacting to fundamentals. The ups and downs are due entirely to sentiment. So any talk about sales, margins, etc... is irrelevant, unless it is directly related to sentiment. Fortunately for the pump/dump crowd, there is a more effective way to manage sentiment. Which is the brokers and their analysts and their herd of followers. The herd of course exists only to enrich the broker trading departments. Occasionally a very savvy herding assistant will get wind of what the brokers are getting ready to pump and buy ahead of the herd. If your new econ discussions can give us advance word on what the upcoming scams are, then wonderful. How can I join? If however, you talk about B2C or A2Z or whatever, then in my opinion it is useless. I'd rather read the more objective posts of Eric or the impassioned poetry of impristine than some new economy delusions. Or even the musing of HJ regarding a bigger Class! Why did you change your name, anyway ? Are we allowed to call you by your real name ? -Sarmad
