<<Speculation is completely out of hand.
EMC had a $5 to $7 move on no news in 90 minutes ADBE, CIEN SUNW the same. Movements even if they seem arbitrary are not only WS houses know the short interest intraday or from a day before........... and then they arrest a 15 year old and not the real criminals.>>

Haim: exactly right. So many times in this mania, I am reminded of the police chief talking to the Nazis in Casablanca: "We'll round up the usual suspects"...anything to avoid a serious look at what's wrong and finding the real criminals.

P.S. Note that the movie, like the current mania, takes place in a casino. Coincidence? I THINK NOT!!

i couldn't agree more...i'd love to have tapes of some of the conversations going on behind the scenes, e.g. when the end of month/quarter paint jobs are perpetrated...

i'd send them to the SEC, which then no doubt would proceed to ignore the evidence...:)
