Nice take by the Color Commentator on the implosion of QLGC today, and on legalized stock-jobbing in general:

capitalstool.com

The Color Commentator had the following to say about the sudden collapse of his favorite stock (QLGC):

"Interesting to note, I awoke to sells and such on one of my favorite methyl nitrate trading vehicles, QueerLogic. Drug addicts jammed it up over 100% in 3 weeks to 44 area and now we have kamikazee pilots in white scarves and leather helmets attempting to bail out of the issue at 3,000 feet over Midway this morning. Sake swilling gunners are finding the atmosphere thin at these levels, a nice coordinated sell order by 2 criminal Houses preMarket today should help nurse this crate down to its OE maximum pain at 35 before another jamming resumes post OE assuming the indexes comply. Its all a silly game, virtually all of it. Pavlovian retail waits dutifully each pre and post market for the tablets to be brought down from the mountain, the religious announcements to be made by the 'experts' who move most of the price on this gambling junk in nontrading hours. Say What? Its time to storm the friggin Mountain folks. Tie up Moses and the rest of the mad prophets and put an end to this crooked ritual once and for all. Its time to get a wire on some undercover people in the back rooms of these numbers running 'Houses' and specifically breakdown how the operation plays out. The obvious coordination between the tradings desks and the analysts has to be identified and catalogued. Trading records of these Racketeering outfits have to be seized. Office conversations have to be taped and provided as evidence in ongoing investigations. Its alot of work, it will more than likely never happen, but unless its done all the rest is just talk,blather and posturing. 'Reform' on Wall Street is the same milkbone being tossed out as 'reform' on the campaign trail. Its all alot of nonsense. Its the smoke and mirrors of the Matrix."
