Good analogy with Gaming stocks t4.

Was a broker during that craze. Had a client who got in fairly early, ride it all the way up and got so bullish on the fundamentals that he couldn't sell even when it was obvious that a decline had set in. So he rode it all the way down.

OT/Your point about good fundamentals during major declines in a sector is one a few of us here made over and over here to mostly deaf ears(g). After repeated dust ups over that and other issues the FA, politically correct crowd left to start their own thread and did everything they could to drain this thread.

Some of their more saavy posters have recently begun posting on both threads. But the ones who bashed us TAers and contrarians are seldom seen anymore except for the quick hit and run bashing attack like John Clark pulled last week, lol.

Frankly I'm glad those bozos are gone. I'd rather have fewer posters with better quality analysis here.

Welcome to SD.

Gaming manufacturer boom

IGT, the world's #1 gaming manufacturer, is at 20 year highs making the gaming equipment provider bubble nearly twice as large as the first. Business must be good.

Imagine a new tech bubble twice as large as the first. Anyone who bought early would be unbelievably satisfied.
