Gregory Zuckerman. Remember the name, CNBC managers. He's the guy who is ahead of the curve. This is your chance to actually HELP the small investor avoid the next excess. The smart hedge fund managers are handing the reigns to the amateurs, allowing them to bail from positions that have become untenable. And the amateurs are/will be sucking in the little guy.

What the writer doesn't understand is that most hedge fund managers and new hedge funds suck. The number of investable managers is 3/100 and the number of superstars is 1/2 that. Leverage won't kill hedge fund managers...poor absolute returns will.

It was obvious that most of your on-air personnel were sending a "this is a bubble folks" message, between the lines if not more directly. So they were sending you telepathic messages while performing the stock market cheerleading routine? Tom

<I am not critical of CNBC's role in bankrupting the retirement of America's common man during the dotcom, etc. collapse. It was obvious that most of your on-air personnel were sending a "this is a bubble folks" message, between the lines if not more directly. The daily warnings were palpable.> That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard.... the fact is they were chronicling every tick in all the .com CRAP!!!!!! Every freakin TICK! As if they were microsoft or IBM. DAk

It was obvious that most of your on-air personnel were sending a "this is a bubble folks" message Huh? Would that be Maria's excited, breathy intonations of Buy.com showing great strength before the bell or the chummy, wink-wink, backslapping between the hair patrol when there were stocks in our system that were up over 80 points in a day? I specifically remember on several occasions in 2001, Kernan flat out announcing that it "looks like you've missed the bottom" if you didn't buy in the day before. Remember, crack kills. -dave
