The cat out of the bag had nothing to do with profits or revenues or supply and demand. It had nothing to do with the companies involved.... It's kind of like the ENRON hoax where they simulated a war room ...and the guys sat around and talked to prospective customers ...while the ANALYSTS paraded around like a DOG and pony show... It's kind of sad,,,(MONKEY SEE MONKEY DO) but the cat out of the bag was all about the trading rooms at NASDAQ and the price fixing and price movements that can go on when the will to do it is there...that's where the story is... You bash these companies like it's something personal... Well why don't you look at the guys who move the PRICES around and thus the perception of the world around... That's where I point the finger.... that's where the Buck stops... It's not about the companies... The companies are just an idea... They create paper out of thin air... But it's the Market Makers who have to move the price around to create the perception of something...They have to work in concert...(TO MOVE THE PAPER)..You think in the case of AOL with 4.4 billion shares or Cisco with 7 billion shares that supply and demand has absolutely anything to do with Ciena getting clocked or IBM fixing their Balance sheet. Give me a break. It's ALL a giant HOAX...the guys behind the curtain are laughing at everybody.
