I've started buying Verisign. So far I own just a few hundred shares, but I plan to scale into it more over time. The Verisign story is very compelling, particularly because of the recurring revenue stream.

The reason Verisign ticked up on all those little trades is that the market makers had to short their own account to make the market. There was no inventory on hand.

Nobody is manipulating Yahoo; there's no need to, and manipulating an issue with Yahoo's volume today is nearly impossible. There was a buying panic today across-the-board. The breadth was awesome.
