True, by the way. One of the all-time "Analyst Rating Disasters": Priceline

Remember Goldman Sachs giving Priceline a rating of a BUY with a $120 target?

Or how about Robertson Stephens giving it a Strong Buy rating when the stock was already at $134! LOL!

"123,853,000 shares cannot all be sold by the little guys. With such huge institutional holdings, some bigger guys
and gals have to be included. It is safer to say that the misinformed and misguided get hurt by selling at the wrong
time. I think this is one of those times."

Does this mean there are multiple camps out there amongst the "big boys", duking it out like the guys on WWF? Wonder which one of them is called "Sting"?
