Steve667,

>What does one need to be an brokerage analyst? Do you have to be able to pick your nose and butt at the same time without getting your fingers mixed up?<

Apparently that's the most stringent qualification. Other than that, barriers to entry are almost non-existent. PLUS, they have the added benefit of total immunity for saying anything they want, including yelling "FIRE!" in packed theatres. :^)

SNDK making nice recovery this a.m. BTW, Aus, you do a great job of keeping us informed. Lurked on this board for a long time, admiring the breadth of knowledge and high quality of discussion before I bought SNDK. Please keep up the great work as I'm not accomplished in either area!

Regards,

Knip

I know what you mean Steve..... It's unbelievable how many of these analysts just love stocks near their highs, but despise them near their lows or after most of the hot air has been already taken out of them..... They should get a new career in "sanitary engineering" or something like that. <g> Yogi
