<< Following herd, not knowing the destination can lead to slaughter house. >> Judging by all the posts I've read on this thread and the press I have read about YHOO, I wouldn't say I have followed the crowd. In fact I think I have done the exact opposite. I have never heard so much bearishness about a stock in late January like with YHOO so I went long. Conversley, everyone on this thread who was screamimg to short YHOO at 65 said they wouldn't touch it around 90, towards the tail end of the last squeeze. Seemed like a perfect time to short if you ask me. Then, after YHOO dropped 10 points even William H discouraged me from buying YHOO, telling me he would wait, thinking it might drop a little farther. (Of course he had been long for a while and still said YHOO was going higher in time). Of course that was the time to buy but I didn't stick with it. I think I was high on THNK instead. Maybe it was TLAB. Seems like not following the crowd is the easiest way to make money on YHOO. The number of posts on this thread have exploded, and there are a lot more bulls on this thread now so I am a little wary of YHOO at this point. Best to wait for pullbacks to jump in.
