"I think brokerage firms help instigate these mini-panics in stocks or sectors to keep their best clients make money."

Dave,

I totally agree. Investors that think Bre-X was the biggest scam ever perpetrated are totally blind. IMO, Wall Street has become the biggest scam. And we, the small investors are being royally screwed.

Wall Street insiders, through their analysts, create situations where none exists. They raise expectations and once they've filled their coffers by selling their shares to us gullible suckers, they suddenly introduce a would-be catastrophic scenario causing shares to freefall. Conversely, once the shares have dropped sufficiently, these same baboons come back and tell us that all is well and reiterate strong buys and high target prices. I'm sure most here will remember dear Abby Cohen.

The market crash of a couple of weeks ago which sent shares spiralling downward was attributed by Wall Street stiff-necks to fighting in the Middle East. The fighting in that region still continued last week yet stocks skyrocketed. Is there really a cause and effect here or is everything we are told Bullshit?

Do I have a solution to stop this scam? NO, unfortunately I don't. I'm just getting out with the little I have left.

Wall Street, I don't need your Bullshit so screw yourself.

Vince
