At this point in the discussion, I think it behooves your position to find some data to back up your concern. Either that or accept my posts and the posts that mike douglas, Solon, Khalil, and that of whoever Rambi posted today. Po, you're the only one who says selling doesn't drive down prices. I don't find any comments by Khalil on the subject. Mike acknowledged that a surfeit of sellers does drive down prices. Solon said "it may well be." I got into this discussion simply to back up CR. He's out of it and I've long since said everything I have to say on the subject--that selling drives down prices and a precipitous drop in the market on Monday would give aid and comfort to our enemy, which IMO is not something one does when at war. I don't need to do any research to know that the sky is blue. Everybody wants to buy, the price goes up. Everybody wants to sell, the price goes down. Duh. I've only kept at this discussion because people keep posting everything about short selling except how selling somehow defies the laws of gravity. At this point in the discussion, I think it behooves me to leave you to do whatever it is that you will do. Which is pretty much where I started. Karen
