Okay, now that the CFRA report has come out and been flogged, is there anyone on this board who agrees with me that no predictions about the general stock market, the bull and bear history, the holograms of former posters, and all other relevant and pertinent information that has nothing to do with QCOM, be allowed on this board. I am fed up with posters who should have their own lively thread on the above topics. Can we have a forum to discuss QCOM?

I agree. It took some people until recently to even admit that we are in a bear market. Case in point is Addi on the LSI board. To him, and to many others, the 9/11 tragedy came in handy as an escape route. Otherwise they would be still in denial. Another myth that is going to be destroyed is the one about "buy and hold". As of now, the attitude of investors in the 401(k)s is -- "We don't mind going down as long as we don't miss the upside". Well, at some point they will realize that there is NO upside and the possibility that they will go down further will loom larger and larger. Sometime during the next year or two, the average buy-and-hold investor will add up his losses, go to the toilet, and decide to get the hell out of the market.
