I don't see how AMZN, YHOO, AOL, longs can be so unsophisticated if they're raking in the dough. You don't actually rake in the dough until you close a position. When the longs start doing that, the Ponzi scheme will collapse. The stock market's P/E ratio is the highest it's been since at least 1880, per a neat chart shown on CNBC today.

Hey, craig, sounds like you are so frustrated that you are trying to pick a fight with something that doesn't concern you. My reply was a simple playful response to an attack made on me. It has nothing to do with you. BUTT OUT. As a professional short seller for 14 years now I have made more money than you will ever dream to see. I have not lost anything in any of the stocks you mentioned, and as a matter of fact, have made quite a nice sum of money being SHORT both AOL and AMZN in a rising market. Now that takes some skill. Short sellers and traders do NOT just take one position and read the paper. I actively manage and turn my position on a minute by minute basis. Why don't you stick to digging ditch or whatever you "less- sophisticated" people do and leave the bantering and trading to those who can do it on a daily basis without getting all bent out of shape, as you appear to be................;^) P.S. From your post: Message 3580015 >>>"I don't see how AMZN, YHOO, AOL, longs can be so unsophisticated if they're raking in the dough. Sounds like you guys have it backwards as to who is and who is not sophisticated."<<< No one ever said longs were unsophisticated. You put words in other peoples posts that are not there.
